poetry pieces

sink below the waves
carried away by tides
unseen
open eyes in the salt
peer through the murky
depths

it feels as though
an ocean between
us
opens
lay between us
ocean

lay between us
let my regret
forget
my sins
against you
lay between us

it feels as though
an ocean between
surrounded by land
familiar

###

strip away my veins
string up my meat
by piece, by piece
string up my meat

bleed me like a pig
stick me with your blade
make me drip
stick me with your blade

blood makes me slick
truth in love is fucking sick
bite by bite
truth in love is fucking sick

###

like watching trains pass
through the underground
like watching the metre
ticking up forever
inch forward
closer and closer
decolonial sentiments
sediment filling lungs
with fear of the tides
metronomic
washing away
