like hawks

John Sweet

and dogs in frozen fields
beneath february sunlight

dogs on fire in churches
built from the bones
of the poor

laughter

yours
mine
doesn’t really matter

any sound in a vacuum,
you know?

any drug to help numb the pain

can’t spend your whole life
crawling naked across
dirty concrete floors
but i know you’ll try

i know you’ll tell me
i don’t understand

it’s the same conversation
we’ve been having since
the first time i swore
i loved you
