To a single woman, time is like a scrap of meat: Nothing you can afford to give away.
Absolutely brilliant poetry. Each line was heady and beautiful and contained the truths that no one speaks aloud. Adored this.
I've never seen poems connected in theme with the same last line repeated in each. Powerful! Each so original and intimate and true. LOVED THEM.
Authority
Flings a struck match in our direction, then
Gasps when we flare into flame. Law:
A contest between low-lives and sophisticates,
Though only time knows who is who.
Tonight I want to commit a victimless crime.
Loved all of this but especially these lines.
