this poem contains material unsuitable for children
a paper bird painted blue
hangs
from
the ceiling
your skin: sweating
your thighs tighten around my head
you say that you see
the face of a fish mourning
a fish mourning in pubic weed
your thighs tighten around my head
i come on stained sheets
a paper bird painted blue
hangs from the ceiling
moves in the slipstream of my standing
a paper bird moving
above a sweating woman sleeping
will become still before you wake
and the face of a fish mourning
will not detain the air
