I Fold Myself Into You

I make myself small.
I fit myself in,
nestling into a home.

My hopes
poured into your earthly body.

A celestial marriage.

Dangerous Girl

She cut the powder
with a razor blade.

I gasped
at the sight of it.

She ignored me.

Or perhaps,
was so concentrated
that my audible surprise
did not even register.

It seemed such a dangerous
tool to carry around
in one's purse.

A plastic credit card
would have done the trick,
neatly dividing drug lines.

But that wasn't her style,
I would come to learn.

She preferred the dangerous choice
in everything possible.

A taste for self-destruction.

A Beautiful Note To Go Out On

The drunk sky
vomits colors
everywhere.

A fucking
incredible sunset.
Even my cynical self
is impressed.

It's so pretty,
it almost feels like
the end of the world.
