“I distribute my blood to strangers, &
the strawberry sky strips its sins off
with its snow jacket. I want to be velvet.

i. I want to be pages & pages of blown out
pupils. I want to last.”
Maya Salameh, Rooh

“the longest griefs are those we never look at / in gutters & columns of newsprint”
Maya Salameh, Rooh

“I wear the stars as earrings. you
tutor me hieroglyphics. I repeat this distance
like homework.”
