I did dream.

The rearview mirror spoke
whispering lies and dreams to us.
Child, it sighed sweetly, don't suicide
With angels supporting your weight.
Let sin swallow you whole.

Deer fed in their furrows alone
Unaware of who and what we are.
Chasers of twilight; Starving songs
Without refrain. We lit the world
On fire with our fasting lips.

Darling she-wolf be still
Spared from lightning sonatas.
Care-giver, soothsayer, rain pattern
tattooed asters on your skin; I have known
the sweet sins swimming in your tears.

Bittersweet lullaby is burned with fire
slipping deeply into a nursery refrain.
Cremated in that twilight that protected us
we were children of the night; burning bright
wolves who knew the stories of our birth.

So I did dream.

I really like this piece. "...tattooed asters on your skin..." and that in particular is just lovely.
