Suede

suede.
you always felt like suede.
There are days I feel your twin.
peekaboo.
hiding underneath your skin.
jets.
are revving yes revving
from a central source and this.
has power over me.
not because you feel
something or don’t feel something for me but because.
mass. so big.  it can swallow swallow her whole star intact.
call me ‘evil’ call me ‘tide is on
your side’ anything that you want.
anybody knows you can conjure
anything by the dark of the moon.
boy.
and if you keep your silence
silencer on you’ll talk yourself right into a job.
out of a hole.
Into my
bayou.
i’m sure that you’ve been briefed
my absorption lines.
they are frayed
and I fear.
my fear is greater than my faith
but I walk.
the missionary way.
you always felt like suede.
there are days I am your twin.
peekaboo.
hiding underneath your skin.
jets.
are revving yes revving from
an ether
twist.
call me ‘evil’.
little sister. I guess i’d do the same.
little sister. you’ll forgive me one day
