The Siren at the Sandbar
I'll pull you in with my glittering eyes
And pull you down with my lonely hands.
I'll tangle you in my sea-salt hair
And tangle you up with heartfelt lies.
I'll whisper a high-tide “I love you,”
Listening to your uncontrollably human pulse.
But those words are meant for me as well
Because I want to believe it could be true.
You’ll follow me to the water with a kind
Of nonchalance still playing on my lips.
You won’t be alive when I’m done with you
But I’ll leave your body for another to find.

an ode to fantastical creatures...
an ode to fantastical creatures that will always live with us
if there was just one way
of meeting you,
I would take it,
whatever the cost,
because I have dreamed
of distant worlds
and billowing clouds
and great forests filled with
animals unnamed,
and feeling the breathlessness
of distant worlds which
are yet to be explored.
I could finally
touch your wings and
learn about the paw prints
you leave in the dirt.
it would take a long time
finding you,
but it would be /so/
worth it.
