(SONNET, draft from the Peculiar You notebooks)

for J.


Singing your theme tears
You away/ the perpetual interplay
Between aggression and love
With enemies like these

Compact, sexy, and always a little scary
Encouraging kiss-me but you won't kiss off

Holed up with secrecies, hoping
For frequency
A cloister from bickering hours
With children like committed thieves

I'm ready now to treat the gutter's implications
Mice the spring rains bring in
Disintegration
How the end always/ is
