SheDisease: dark, empty.
Waiting for hours.
That strange thing,
of disappearing

It would be just me,

made in Illustrator, texture added in photoshop

as is the sea marvelous
from god's
hands which sent her forth
to sleep upon the world

and the earth withers

one by one
stars flutter into dust

and she goes forth out of hands and
she returns into hands

and is with sleep . . . .

love,
the breaking

of your
soul
upon
my lips
