“In your light I learn how to love.
In your beauty, how to make poems.
You dance inside my chest
where no-one sees you, but
sometimes I do, and
that sight becomes this art.”
― Rumi

Skinny latte



Face down in sand or 
Facing the camera

It is no use 

You boy

With the foreign name


I only see the face

Of that other boy

Also with little feet

And a foreign name

And hair that rasps against

lips after good night kisses


Proud owner of a

Little red shirt

Much like yours 

But not as wet


For you I have pledged

The copper that tumbled

On to the counter

As I grabbed my

Skinny latte to go
