The Tomorrow

by Sundin Richards



I don’t ken

to beauty


But you’re

very beautiful


Doxy

doxy


Sun on water

and your


Purple fingers

shuttling my


Vices the world

is a wedding


My love

not ours


But the

whole thing


To which we

keep returning


Giftless and

shame faced


When asked

to dance


Most of my

battle damage


Has healed

but I am


Awash the

alarm


Is turned

off


Heaven is

for victims


Or

nobody


Grass

grass


Tulips

or what


Ever or

iginal mania


The birds

see farther


Than we

they’re


Known

for that


Daisies

and your


Messy hair

the small


Rain down

can rain


Venus

Venus


Especially

when low in


The sky

so I can


Reach it

with my hand


Is a product

of  time like


Everything

else


The death

of suns or


Our little

lights


Grace by star

by loot by shore’s


Crash bleed me

perfect


Cybele chases

Attis around


The

room


Too much

goodness


Is a boom

erang


The beloved’s

breasts Houdini’s


Chains harbor

and polish


Me once

more with


That dis

asterous


Smile with

your little


Gold

ring


And the 4th

of July will


Never be

fun again


Without a

bouquet of


Stolen

flags


The last half

acre of Hades


Is re

served


And the sun

is the most


Personal im

personal


Thing

going


Going

puts the


Bite

back


Into

me
