Kristen de Kline #207 for my birthday

for my birthday
she sends me
a book of poems
about mad women
who talk to the dead
two empty wine glasses
wrapped in tissue-paper
the colour of violet skies
I can taste blood
lick your tears
I'm not young
anymore

  1. I hope those madwomen
    sat with you on the bed
    and together
    you turned
    those violet tears to wine

    this ageing thing
