butterfly etc
You are the 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 scented Water conceals
An underpath
tear me away
On rocks and eddies.

Butterfly
walls are glass
Can see the trees
trees are made
of wind and light
They walk and talk
and fly like swans
When we turn
our backs on them
Tigers burn them
For their seeds
Of resurrection
Breaking starlight
With conjecture
Put your hand out
Caterpillar
Put your gun down
Drink your glass
I can see your
Mortal fracture
I can hear you
In the valley
Saw you flee
The hunger cage
Let me tweak your
Crystal varnish
Sleep beneath
Your keratin glaze
Indissoluble
Blind new eyes
Wrack your heart out
Metamorphosize
Crack your rib cage
Butterfly.
