John Sweet writes


no promises

all faith all
shards of stained glass all
damp and ruined earth

bare hands plunged into
patient soil and
blood pooling in the valleys

call off the attack

breathe in the perfume

be the man who says there
was never any hope
or be the woman he’s talking about

let me show you
where and why

let me say what i mean

it’s been a while, but i still
like to think i’d
know the truth when i see it
