Poem I wrote several months back
Tuesday, October 27, 2015 || 10:38 AM

You listen to me 
with two fingers: one
grazed over your skin
like plaster, the other 
wavering over mine 
like heat. 

You listen to me 
with three ears: words
floating on the surface,
stark and bare like dead
fishes skimming the water.
Two ears full of cursory 
inaccuracies, the third ear
housed by a friend who
insists you deserve better. 

Please, listen to me
with one heart: open, 
bloodied and pure — 
take me in like
a mother speaking 
sweet to the womb; 
loving and whole.
