Pallasite Cufflinks

Wear pallasite cufflinks to tea

Solely so

That when you speak to me

In conversation,

And I hear

The soft, tenor timbre

Of your voice

Against a backdrop

Of silver teaspoons

Accidentally clanging

Against fine, bone china,

I’ll be reminded

Each time you lift your cup

To your lips

Of the laughable thought

That you are of this world.

Mind & Soul

The moment of truth
Is a when, not an if
I think to myself
What have I as a gift?

I could give my left
But I care about fair
My right’d wound us both
Me up here, you in there

So my best offering
Is what I’ve all-ways giv’n
A fine blend of saint
With some sprinkled in sin

Dare Us

Hey Galaxy
Give up your best tragic smile

From out of the dark look us square in the eyes
Like it’s the first time
Like it’s the last time

Kick out your knee and with one hand in your hair, use the other to calm down your thigh

Tell us you’re leaving
Part your lips and dare us to come with
