When you look at the sky underwater,
It's as if the light has something to say.
If you're in the shallow the words could save you,
If you're in deep they just send you away.

You put it down with the things you won't toss away.
Like a thought you'll need on some other day,
When your mind can't think of the words to say.

Pictures Cut

ahhdehhh

Straight down
The narrowest way.
A blocked view on the brightest of days.
What color makes you feel warm in the dark?

Your Daughter went white
Stuck beneath anthracite.
Time to tuck in the culm.
Tell it good night.

When I find myself in a better place,
I settle down just to witness what is unimportant.

Some people move around at the quickest pace.
I settle down just to witness what is unimportant.


Coale Minor's Daughter and the Ghosts

I've given up the worst of the words in the world.

I just save my breath for a day in the sun.

I count the times you wrote "Let us go"
In the snow.

I kept my mouth closed because I was wrong.

How many times do you think it was done?
What cold language did you choose from?
