The Pill Versus the Springhill Mine Disaster


When you take your pill
it's like a mine disaster.
I think of all the people
lost inside of you.

  1. It's the cover of the book of poems.

    LOVE POEM
    It's so nice
    to wake up in the morning
    all alone
    and not have to tell somebody
    you love them
    when you don't love them
    any more.

    I'VE NEVER HAD IT DONE SO GENTLY BEFORE

    For M

    The sweet juices of your mouth
    are like castles bathed in honey.
    I've never had it done so gently before.
    You have put a circle of castles
    around my penis and you swirl them
    like sunlight on the wings of birds.

    Two more of my favorites from the book.
