Love
My loveless wreck is a swarm to you
It covers me until the icing wind burns
Curling into flakes of demonic illness
I have never made love
I adore and yet I never have
Pushed hard with those splinters
Coating me like wood
Burned into years upon a clock of
Black eating heartless pangs
The dull nothingness escaping
Like so much water and silver
Heaven's coins do not speak
In a simple ettiquette, a silent force
Where colours fade
That cuttlefish spine
It burns as a wheel and evaporates
I am hungered
Starved like so many nations
With thick Nazi thighs
I have never made love
My red startling heart piercing endlessly
Plucking holes into damage manipulation
The red flag which emblazens never white
I have never made love
_
For Daffy, the only person who can fully understand.
