“You want me to be a tragic backdrop so that you can appear to be illuminated, so that people can say ‘Wow, isn’t he so terribly brave to love a girl who is so obviously sad?’ You think I’ll be the dark sky so you can be the star? I’ll swallow you whole.”

“The other one he loved like a slave, like a madman and like a beggar. Why? Ask the dust on the road and the falling leaves, ask the mysterious God of life; for no one knows such things. She gave him nothing, no nothing did she give him and yet he thanked her. She said: Give me your peace and your reason! And he was only sorry she did not ask for his life.”

fordamper i sydhellingene, dråper
etter linerler av rim,
brånet i flukten.”

“Even
After
All this time
The Sun never says
To the Earth,
"You owe me."
Look
What happens
With a love like that.
It lights the
Whole
Sky.”

“The internet was my childhood refuge.
It's where I practice still. Erase
my browsing history.
At the strip club, a friend leans over to say
the search for a moral politic is a failure.
How it mirrors a religious pursuit, that fervor.
I agree, then disagree. I'm watching my favorite dancer,
feeling the ghost of my teenage body.
A river rushing superimposed boundaries.
Do to me what sunlight does to a river.”
