Sleepless
Bleed

women
drive on forest top
victim to the night
beneath painless words

her easy beauty felt
the next bare breast
he ripped skin
above his only picture
we are nearly friends

we lie
gone mad
see ache
play music
wind licks like rust
a silent crush
say hello
sincerely

drunk in sweat
knife out from
his garden
beneath a cold
bed

naked
all leave
broken words
poetry

moon sleeps
stars swim in shine
none fall void?

sleepless
so many nights
