John Sweet

and nothing and
nothing and then ten
below zero at five thirty in the morning

no FOR or AGAINST
no TOWARDS or AWAY

am just trying to remember how to
breathe and how to be

am through believing in gods

in heroes

am moving from room to room
with absolute clarity and i

need a gun or a window or the
doorway to a different kingdom

need to be a fist


a believer in those happy
days of open wounds


a priest waiting to
fuck or be fucked


i would give you hope if i could
just for the pleasure of
taking it away again
