Summer 2025 | Poetry

Primary

Dandelion fever breaks on our cheeks

A jacquerie of yellow, scarlatina'd in bliss

A fear of loving Allness in my philophilic swell,

Teething at the constant.

It's ok.

I'm New York straight, midwest gay

indulging paranoia in the Buenos Aires noon

There's laughter at the factory,

A cartoon's sense of death.

Everything in the world is in the world
