Several forms of art, I can sever the seas
or have as many “him”s
and “her”s as time will allow the couple of us –
all involving screwing one another
up, I can even cause oceans
to bleed in my mouth. It is okay to be bad
at painting landscapes and good at
destroying them – good at making people seem
as expansive as a country or continent
because freckles are stars and
we cry so much we’ll build a sodium factory.
