Love Spells
Take a key from the bridge of locks,
and toss it in the grey green waters
laughing we will love forever.
Pass the blade with its secret name
three times round my fecund belly
singing we will love forever.
Strain the blood of my miscarried child
into the napkin on your lap
saying we will love forever.
Hold my madness in your wringing hands
pacing round the frozen room
crying we will love forever.
Stretch a slice of sagging flesh
across our once pumped nubile limbs,
and softly say we will stay together.
Forever.
