calgary

everything about this is beautiful:

Some of my best writing comes after midnight, but Dave Marshall once told me nothing good happens after 10pm. So for now, taste the words and seeings below.

"calgary", bon iver

don't you cherish me to sleep
never keep your eyelids clipped
hold me for the pops and clicks
i was only for the father's crib

hair, old, long along
your neck onto your shoulder blades
always keep that message taped
cross your breasts you won't erase
i was only for your very space

hip, under nothing
propped up by your other one, face 'way from the sun
just have to keep a dialogue
teach our bodies: haunt the cause
i was only trying to spell a loss

joy, it's all founded
pincher with the skin inside
you pinned me with your black sphere eyes
you know that all the rope's untied
i was only for to die beside

so it’s storming on the lake
little waves our bodies break

there's a fire going out,
but there's really nothing to the south

swollen orange and light let through
your one piece swimmer stuck to you

sold, i'm ever
open ears and open eyes
wake up to your starboard bride
who goes in and then stays inside
oh the demons come, they can subside

love,
m
