The Dead, Dead Water Lily Thing |
You can’t just lie there on the bed, you know. |
You can’t lie there without kissing back, you know! |
All the piles of books and not even a blood nose! |
I smell of blood. |
And is there really nothing I can do to you? |
is there nothing to add here? |
I look through the sand in your mouth. |
and pick out the pearls |
and place them in the beaks |
of the pigeons. |
Ididitonce, thedead, deadwaterlilythingwater |
You must have known |
that when I left I felt your head turning |
but had no mercy. |
My words were simple — I’d given up poetry — |
and I climbed back into the t o w e r, |
up the fine plaited ladder. |
In the car — can you feel the sweater tag itching? |
pulling at the neck where I tied your threadstogether? |
Your spine plaited down |
your back |
thefeminineside |
but not on my body. |
AndslowlyIreelyouinin |
Unravelling with me up the escalators, |
down the road, |
around the corner, |
untie my hair from the ocean of winter. |
The roads and the cars dissolve behind me as I |
untie you; |
walkonthewater; |
onthesweetwaterlilies. |
There is no giving back you know. |
You take and take again. |
Is that what you |
want? |
