DO YOU WANT THE TASTE OF MINT TO FLOWFROM YOUR TEETH
AND THROUGH YOUR BONES?
OR DO YOU NEED TO TASTE
FRENCH SILK
AND HONEY MILK?
THIS FEELS LIKE THE WAY
THE FLOWERS ON YOUR MOTHER'S GRAVE
SMELT BEFORE THEY
PASSED AWAY
AND CHOSE THEIR FATE.
THIS SOUNDS LIKE
THE WAY AUTUMN AIR TASTES
AND THE WAY IT'LL SEEP INTO YOUR SKIN
AND REMIND YOU OF ALL THE TROPHY'S
YOU'VE COLLECTED FROM YOUR EX LOVERS.

THE OCEAN MIXED WITH OUTER SPACE AND SMOKE
Poesiayou smell like my old neighbor's lemon tree used to in the latest part of spring and it would linger throughout summer, just as you did ©2017
