I could braid the hair on your back, And you still wouldn’t sit straight You must have been born in the water, You avert traffic , gruffy as a doormat and always less welcoming. You are sick of my sandwiches, desserts I am a cave with echoes, a metro noisy with crowds You honor repose, I pass by pre...

Twelve of them would do it, Each uniformed in a language Rich and Foreign with mystique. They cannot speak only eyes follow orders, They keep in line for fear of separation. Of course they differ in size that was my intention, Their suitcases had personalities they quickly forgot. The nature of the ...

My face fell like a button off someone’s chemise, No one blamed the faulty string or dared to ask, For what’s a mask? Without an identité Why collect ashtrays if you’re hesitant of sparks? We walked in parks and pointed at the people we once were, Their familiar clothes and conversations tickled our...

For Natasha Burge My future has no teeth or heartbeat. She chain-smokes and makes faces at the cameras outside the bank. Ofcourse she laughs with the boys when they jeer, She knows all the girls moves by heart. One day she’ll travel to Riyadh to punch a man in the face, Because he left his ears in ...

You could put your feet up, And your shoes would go on sale, You fool others with your grace and suavity; It only humors me. I would hate to have your state of mind, But I often miss the bus, tagging close behind Your walks always end up as parades-- I become the faceless police; No one bothers to r...

They don’t like my furs, or me at all, They walk past, fast pointing like children, Pretending to love animals they’re scared to even touch, I pretend not to hate them, but I do, at heart. Most mornings they smell worse than these furs. All their sighing and eyeing makes me itch, In my borrowed robe...

You were easily won over by my fluent tongue, You thought I’d measure out. You bet on a broken slide-ruler that lost its place, Lizard-like appearing on whim and in haste. You spend your afternoons, Guessing what I’ve had for lunch I light my cigarettes as you forage for toothpicks. You enjoyed what...
