Borrowed Reflection |
| Like a cabbagetown rubby reaching for the copper on Bleeker Street |
| Like a coconut commoner combing through the needles on any beach |
| Like you want to know |
| What you need to know |
| Smiling to the camera |
| Looking for the window that no one sees |
| I want to go walking |
| Walking with you |
| Like a calico mother waiting for the moment to hold her knees |
| Like my borrowed reflection crawls into the space of an empty sheet |
| Like the world is your buoy |
| And the moon is your defense |
| Like the horror of the naked eye |
| Looking at the mark of a leaky pen |
| Cover me with pomegranates |
| Till I see my royal partner |
| I will be the queen of spades |
| Then I will measure time |
| As if it flowed from mirrors |
| Under heaven’s wake |
| Like a blood-borne baby squints into the light and begins to breathe |
| Like the moment I close my eyes on the edge of sleep |
| Like the rumour of joy |
| Or the musings of grief |
| Dance with me a second time |
| Till I feel the blood in my feet |
