Bad Tooth




Home to where the dust settles again,

I see birds who are never sorry for the sky.

Magnets pull my teeth like radiation,

the thought of you crumbling turns me

back to the days when glass was sand

and some words were monuments of our love

before gray icicles had formed in the dead radiators

we lived with winter after winter.

The turmoil is gone.

The dust just settles now.
