for the love of god

by Georgina Willms


I.
A thought
Too small
To hide


II.
Broken bird song
Intruder bleeds
And silence weeps


III.
The drums of shame divide
Intuition behold
Unclean: a libertine


IV.
A provocation dreamt alive
But doomed, my hands that closed your throat
Enjoy forgiveness doled out cold


V.
Bleak the air now hangs in midnight’s gaze
My lord cut fast and held in chains no longer
Happily blank, the shroud resumes its march.
