FIRST PRAYER
right now your name
is the cruelest word
in this language
but still i'll say it
over and over
the only word of
the only prayed
i've ever said
a name as pins and as swords
that scrapes and cuts
that bears repeating
until it is heard
or until there's nothing to hear
ANOTHER PRAYER
can i please tell you about
the weight of days of 11:11 wishes?
& that i never wished for you?
only for you to follow your heart
can i please remind you about
the heart i wanted?
anatomically correct
but utterly ignored
