the mouth is like a mailbox
pushing reversed letters seriously
through a kind of broken bravado of lust
I’m making a present of my assets
and promises, crushing dried lavender
it’s for you if you’ll stay
the tip of your tongue teases
what could be called my lower lip
at times I don’t know who I am
random faces from key moments
of life scattered through my head
lost in the mists of laughing gas
please please please
please please please please
please
all influential people die
in groups of odd numbers
like your husband’s relatives
they were shot outside the cinema
the case is still unsolved, so unsolved
I believe in every word you say
you’re under the open skylight
sipping on kahlúa over ice
you’re always on the phone
talking about cello lessons
youth crime, savings accounts
Hodgkin’s lymphoma, cocktail hour
getting what you want
please please
please please please please
please please please
it’s coming closer
I speak about my dream
day in, day out,
until I hear myself
speaking from the dream

I wanted to get lost in other people
other people’s greatest qualities
a two story townhouse in the UK
with a blue marble bathtub
unaffected by the economy
spend every day inside it like in a puzzle
twist it with full responsibility
hold my head in my hands like a cup of poison
while everyone is elsewhere
in some shared experience
I’m consumed
keychains, no missed calls, yearning
networks, potential, job contract
pressure, something to hold
telephone pole
keychains, networks, yearning
no missed calls, pressure, jewellery
pity, nicotine, nothing to lose
telephone pole
keyholes, networks, yearning
no missed calls, passionfruit
jewellery, permanence
telephone pole
I wanted to do a linguistic magic trick
it has to be possible, I want to do it
like it’s never been expressed before
telephone poles after sundown
silenced by a miracle or whatever
this need is, I’m working on it
