A place unlovely # 134 Claine Keily

They said
you are moving to
an unlovely place
made of dust and heat
and I said
unhighway me
remove me from
all places stained
with the unkind hands
of salt and sea
I was born without
the jellyfish parts
of those who live there
so instead
in a place unlovely
I will make ponds from rain
and loan my hair
until it forms
a temple for bees
