A Cargo of Green Hearts
~POEMS~
I'm a snowman its true
the ice has crawled over my sleep has wrestled my heart to the floor and massaged it into a popsicle the carrot to replace my frostbitten nose my eyes always were lumps of coal the hat--I have no excuses for that hat now that I am only allowed to move at night now quietly I rearrange the furniture of drifts lathe icicles out of boredom summon the silence that comes with blizzards fuck with your travel plans (heh. it's a job.) what I really desire though will kill me all over again a warm kiss the equator of a bed if you see my breath frosting your window let me in I will melt on your floor slide under your pink hands like holy water.
