Black ink and sunbeams poetry

Brimstone,

sunken, seeks out a star,

your smile, forced between clenched teeth,

belays sorrow beyond

the scope of expression or understanding

my words,

laden down, stick in my windpipe,

yours, silent,

well up and fall like raindrops

on the intersection of Meridian and Linder

road

we, astride, wander the hedges,

we, seeking out a star,

begin anew
