coronation by Wendy Gealcoronate me in sweet burns and kisses that lull
the darkest depths of my ruin
i tinge and writhe and hush out wounds
that only the salt of you could heal. These tears are my river.
i will float lilly,
soft until the water
drowns out my sadness and flushes itself away into
the hungry earthshore
