drunk. but still writing.

Outrages of rain
Slide between the bars of the gate
What is coming upon us is a shudder of water and of silence

Kostya
When I loved you
And when you ruined me
Even the white buds bared their teeth at me

Even their stems have sun in their blood
But I am all darkness
Not the loam
That waits in darkness for a life to sprout
And not the potent darkness
That takes the light into its mouth

Only a solemn darkness
Stern and parched with want
Kostya
I have become my hunger
And even the streetlamps
Condemn my hands in suffusions of light
