“Let’s go dance in the snow

until our limbs are frozen

together and our eyes

turn to glass.

Run away with me

and spin me around

under the bruise-colored

sky until our arms bleed

from gripping too tight.”

“As time wears on

my mind wears down

to the studs and rotten insulation.

The fact is: I’ve been torturing myself

by takin’ a brutal sledgehammer to the

beautiful dwelling you’ve made for yourself,

but each dent I make, each split beam I shatter,

I never make headway in tearing you out.

At this point in time,

I’m on to closing you off, boarding you up--

quarantining your perfect world of a corner--

finally makin’ sure it’s you inside

looking out, and not me bashing in my head

trying to join you.”
