lyrics

box to glove; big to love

upholster this hand
in ten-fold velvet
crush the small
jewel-shaped creatures
into awkward typeface
make the words recede
like the lonely look
caught in an eye
scanning the sky
for one more slash
of color before night
falls over the city
so completely even
the lights inside
the seams holding
entire blocks together
hide as the sound of a dog
a child a crow becomes a minor
hook in the ear
an illegible scrawl
covering in ornate pattern
a curtain at the window
a heart embossed in gold
a mind in thrall
to its latest
most lavish love
