Entry Wounds




Do you remember the canister of 
fancy nuts 
the neighbours who called us
sinners
they sent it over for Christmas
you held it in your lap and cried
a something drowning in so much nothing
and then the switch in your eyes
but I loved you 
more than snow on my 
birthday in December

Where are you tonight?
I see you sitting on the low-backed 
sofa only a cat could love
discussing Jung and astrology in
the same breath
condemning me in the next
I see you you are so unknowable
I hate one person more and that is
myself
