9/8
shall my lover stay
even though he's
made of polar ice
shall my lover stay
even though he bites
at my fire and strangles
my soaring flames
shall my lover stay
even though he turns off
my favorite song
and stashes polaris away
when i try to visit
his apartment
shall my lover stay
even though he plays
an acidic tune that
breaks off my front tooth
and makes the moon
full of folsom blues
shall my lover stay
even when the bridges
have burned and all
the water is cast away
shall my lover stay
even though he has
second degree burns
and blossoming influenza
sweeping his stone cold brain
(and when ice shrinks — fire grows)
