walls.
I.
Edinburgh, 2008
YOUR TWENTIES
The framed art creeps along the wall, the cat
wants another cat, you make bowls that I eat from—
I could eat, since your ask always comes at four.
The plants outside grow. They tumble down
to the water, wanting water. I wake up
in your arms. I remember not to look back
when leading a man out of darkness. A girl outside
asks me, do you know where and then blanches
sudden as the morning. Years ago
I lived in a city built onto itself. Each street
ate its own tail. When I marry you
I am making a promise. A mirror bought isn’t bought
