Mary-Louise
Honey chestnut, I read today
they’re not liking you much
You’re a sandstorm, dust
blinding the eyes of good liars
Beige mouth, speaking of
truth, stunning a subjective sentiment
So sentient, washed out by years
of shore searching, peach shells
You’re clamming up under manila heat lamps,
sweating sugar beets, wrapping that taupe cardigan
tighter and tighter around windblown shoulders,
sinking lower and lower, an all-knowing dune
Nice, my senses were able to share in the experience. Thanks
