to be told i am worthless/
useless/
unloved
is liberating.
without those
cuffs of roles unfulfilled
i can
be uncaring–
that
cold’d wave of wind clinched-less
in palm
and
belly of fingers.

how pale turns moon
when your eyelids close
and your servant, i, can see you dreaming–
within subtled twitch
your lips turn rose
and left am i,
the startled spy upon your ceiling
how
round those eyes
the
roundest eyes
that arm
jerk-twisted and showing
those ribs
those ribs cleaned
and caving
those eyes;
how round
those eyes
swollen and stationed
