BUTTERFLY TONGUE

10th Street was restless and my feet were listless

I made for perdition like a northbound train on a southbound track

She was an angel dragging her wings through puddles and wearing a hangover like a wedding dress

I took her to a donut shop with walls the colour of Hank Williams's coffin

She looked at me like a preacher's daughter clothed only in moonlight and fingerprints

For six solid months day never once buttoned her baby blue shirt

I invited myself for a parlay knowing the house was Pompeii and I was a Roman

She flopped on the couch, shoulder blades broken by the weight of her own beauty

Now there's an exultation of larks with your name on it

The angels have assembled to sing their sorrows down
