Cin Sweet Poems

Like the lonely winter tree
Outstretched branches with never any leaves
Lonely skeletons, with lonely smiles
They look away while trying to hide
...

I'll remember you,
Every time I see the green,
That paints our rolling hills,
When the weather turns to Spring,
...

When the sun bleeds
On and through the window panes
Indiscriminately so
Him tasting of my sour skin
...

This is it,50th and C Streets
Damn school's crumbling down
Right down around our knees
See them apartments, them over there
...

depression wilts me
fear binds me
i sag, shrinking, sinking iron heavy
i'm five-'o-clock stockings
...

You, doe eyed, those lashes
Hand grabbing them up
Like a miner's gold dust
Scratched up little red car
...

Will I?
I dunno, I might like you enough
in Chicago
enough to go to bed with you
...

everyone 'round here
so slow, barbaric
they know what they know
anything else, they say
...

Seventeen, a beauty queen
What was it like in your dreams?
When you stared up at the stars
What did you wish for?
...

Happy now this Higgins
with his natural bristle head
zoom brooms for legs
lunch-gut in his belly pantry
...
