Cutis Calligraphy

I

 

Her eyes are like

twin stars and hard liquor

like oblivion shores

black-glass lapping

mascara tears

cutis calligraphy to destinations

                            unknown

 

 

We call her Hali

 

 

I want to be different

                                  she thinks

but cardboard is cardboard

apathetic pre-made flaps

and I’m not ready to rip

to change my design

 

Her skin is like

November and a misdemeanor

like purpled purgatory
