breeze goes through my bones
cuts through my muscles and leaves, bye.
bothers me like home.

i crept along; black
dark through your heart
twisted in your muscles
brought into your breath.
singular stream
of in and out.
10/5/00
homeless girl camps on a bench
because her pride's too big to swallow
pulls up her collar and turns the other cheek
the beauty of it all is that
both cheeks are lashed.
