morning-11.06.20

finds me more dead than alive

blinding hot

blinding sun

blinding grief

no place like home

no place is home

no 12 steps to heaven

the shaman knows

the way

heaven only

a potion away

no guilt

I seek the pleasures

of your skin

I pour wine

fruit of the earth and of the vine work of human hands

TV flickers and bleeds

a lynching for all to see

I watch

trying not to choke on bread

streets

ankle-deep blood

I await

transfiguration

transfiguration: a complete change of form or appearance into a more beautiful or spiritual state

transfiguration

I await

sanctification, in your sex

sanctification: that: Sanctifying grace is that grace, which purifies into a sacred state

I 

await 

mourning 

in
