Kristen de Kline #199 Abercrombie Street

we loved like demons

our kisses, fresh

and  fugitive

+


we wrestled with skeleton trees

snorted lines with Nick Cave

crooned away to Miss Chatelaine:

hold me captive

just a while

+


on willow-pattern plates

and pieces of tin foil

I chased the dragon

the wind

and you

+


when you left

I found long blonde strands

nestling on the purple sofa

a book of poems

about a tired sky

and a plane

dropping out

of sight

when you left

+

  3. near where the Demon Lovers played
    electric dulcimers
    and missed
    the strings when they were really pissed
    they played what Neville bade
