Wild Petals

You are the back beats 

Which empty the blood 

From my fractured carcass 

Like the suicide of Love

You are the heat 

Which throbs in my veins

Like a drunken car crash 

That's how the universe began

It's my ambition 

To make you tremble

Like fractured space 

Give me permission 

To be your whole 

To plough your furrow 

To accelerate your burn

Foot to the metal 

As wild as a petal 

You're made from the sunshine 

And tendrils of glass 

You are complete 

Nobody's pony 

A star on the Heath 

A triumphant collision

Of perfume and bones

I can taste you 

In the rain

Your face is a river 

Currents of grass 

Open as your gaze 

The amber scented 

Water conceals

An underpath

tear me away

The rocks and eddies

The softness

The rock bottom softness 

My arm flows around you 
like Lorca’s wind

And the water falls 

And rolls

And swims.
