Amnesia And Inkpens

Stories and Angels
medallions and eyes
soldiers and battles
and mellowing lies.

Chair-backs and lightbulbs
blank paper and candles
shoelaces and bracelets
and street-lamps and vandals.

Ribbons and bare feet
fist fights and dry grass
hairpins and telephones
and cold bloodied glass.

Amnesia and inkpens
old boots and drains
blue buttons and patches
and poets and pain.

Beautiful things, that are buried,

or burned.
