Soft
It is a soft factory
Fumigated from the earth and snow,
Filled with pale sinews
Of heaven.
Dismantled skies
Clutter up the corners,
Staring like white stretched faces.
Candle lit bones,
Flicker their expressions.
It is a soft memory,
Mechanical membranes
And rain filled spoons.
Listening to my voice of pale make-up,
Covering a piano rhapsody.
It is a hard hotel room,
Where the radio plays the moon
And eyes dissolve, in a wine glass.
Where the windows wait for lightning,
And night is transfused from veins.
I put my lungs on the table
And return to the choir
Of the sky.
