| What desperate depths you’ve drug me to… |
| Still blood to bruise I’d run to you. |
| So it’s the least that i could do to remember you |
| The way that you would want me to |
| Those days before these pores improved when, |
| Sore to swoon, I swore to you |
| Then ankles bound with trousers round, |
| I’d lay the way you taught me to. |
| Loose slacks ascend toward half mast, |
| Those photographs outlast what’s come to pass |
| I have in my mind the face upright, |
| The skin was taught… but horizontal, |
| An excess came from somewhere |
| To droop down clouding sockets, |
| Flushing hollows pulling the mouth into a drooping, |
| Head-heavy heart. |
| It was in this position of the skin that it looked sadden, |
| Yet entirely moved by feeling sad. |
| This is where I knew we met |
| The Kicking Dead. |
| Those hips of rose through balls of blue |
| It’s all that i’ll recall of you |
| Those faithful few who never knew? |
| Well, what they don’t know won’t hurt you |
| One sinful slip which slew us two from scorn to screw |
| I mourn for you who’d flatter me your fleur de lis |
| Who’s elegies still seep from me |
| And pleased to fondly think of thee |
| On berber-burnt and bended knees |
| So rest however restlessly with peace beneath these cherry trees |
