Amber Heart

“Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog” Caspar David Friedrich, 1818

I am wanton pain

Fire, bear, skin

Shooting star scabs with hair trails

Pansy pocket closet moth

Dusted sheep’s wool o’er relentless sea

Lonely wanderer above it all

A compendium of meat and bone and sinew

Blue mountainous peaks beyond reach

Now is the only constant

Blood boils butter churns heat simmers

The bumps grow and turn and burn

I am woman I be want I face love
