a goddess in big hoop earrings



she said being Jung on the road 

journeys unknown, Life a bread 

if you find or fear 

Love lay dying 

put your hands 

on my wheels instead 


she reached over to me 

as i drove 

put her finger 

in my mouth

and her feet on the dash 

said drive your self 

like the Sun 

pours against the Moon at night


crows no longer  

pick what remains 

they sit a wire, watch 

entire worlds pass by 

cars whirring tempest pours 

loud music tinted doors 


miles pass 

road blurred humanity

i lean in, another cigarette 

and muse 

what of us fades from roar 

why this world 

an empty nature 


do not cry, she said 

hunger is a womb 

and lives inside 

like now 

when Winter 

or Hope 

needs refuge 

we must find where 

your lips dance 

those songs 

rain makes 


pull over here 

kiss me darling 

she says somewhere 

between the frost 

and the dew
