to say it again, I
have two hearts now
his safe inside meĀ
so that if one might break again
the other is bouyant
holding me up
as I drift to the mending shore
again, with needle and thread
between my teeth, you
can’t fathom someone
with two hearts this deep?
me, mending nets on the beach
but you keep your eyes on the horizon
touch me and one will implode
push me and the other will explode
