as men choose swords -- 

words not so powerful
enough, as men restrict
their dialogues to: Ready!
Aim! Fire!~ and mourning...

Be
Then see
Life easy


Toy
Pure ploy
In sure joy

Set free
As you see

The sharpened edge of white
the transparency of cutting ice,
the indeterminate length...

I smoked every night till three
All because the man
Won’t come back to me

I talked online to an ex-boyfriend
I slept on...
