A Fantasy of Memory

Sickly sweet like golden nectar

honey drips from the actress’s tongue

words unfamiliar

her pride is a headlight’s glow

a place she’s been before

Among sweet cityscape

Streams of light and honey and rain

Dancing over street-lit riverbeds

She performs in a different spotlight

She never told you where she'd go

Fragile spector lost in reflections

Pocket full of bus coins

She never told you where to find her

April rain caught in her mascara

She bounds across with flooded eyes

Fearless to the screaming breaks

her fingertips drip sweat and rust

syrup spills from transmissions

she wants to taste

sad poetry
