St. Paul of the Cross


you are what is known as

the underside of a plum,


a tiny pocket of pink

from a grapefruit.


burst it open with

the weight of your tongue


and find a coal mine.

a diamond is a diamond

is a diamond.


wear black and blend in

with all of the feathers.


your eyes are apples

bruised on all sides.
