The Cloud
I am just another one amongst the crowd.
I am just another one amongst the crowd.
How do you report a government to itself?
It was on this spot of shoreline that Ben’s body had washed up, almost a month ago now.
A blast of Granda’s biscuit scent fills my nose
watching the sun bear eat star fruit call it a first date.
Scales like quarters glinted
in the wintry sun
He said an eagle needs the sun on its wings, needs the vastness to learn to fly.
the god is the machine, swooping in to halt the peat
I don’t think I believe in god.
I wrapped you in my arms so we were close
enough to catch the thin light
between our bodies
