cinnamon
kendera i would give you a cinnamon heart,
love.
but you won't open your hand.

it would be sweet,
love.
but all you taste is chocolate.

birdmad as i walked along the city street, the rain falling and the exhaust drifting about, i rembered the small clutch of houses which seemed so out of place in a neighborhood where most of the neighbors are mechanics, convenience stores and machine shops

the smell of flowers blossoming in the rain from one front yard as i pass by
the pleasant faced old man smoking his fragrant pipe under the shelter of the his porch from the next
his next-door neighbor with the loud tv set

and from the last house before returning to the concrete and blacktop expanse which shimmered from the light rainfall the streetlights and the traffic that rolled over all of it, the sight of the door partially cracked open and drifting gently into the night the smell of sugar and cinnamon, warm and inviting

getting home, going to the little store on the corner and getting a little plastic package with little brown twigs in it labeled "canelas"

cinnamon sticks

the urge to chew the sweet, spicy bark

Fido of all my vices
cinnamon is King!
yes it's the best I swear
and if you couldn't care
less if your oats had more
cinnamon or less well
I wish you the best
but, please, let be those blessed
with the craving
go on - possessed -
we're happier that way

crOwl oh sin-among-us, bid thee stay
we will keep thee to our feathered breast three days
by the fire, in the garden, on the bed.

tired? no.

raze one glass of red_wine and you were someone else. you started heckling the horrible steven seagal movie we were watching. there was a peripheral character you couldn't get enough of. his long hair was pulled back in a tight man bun.

"it looks like a cinnamon bun," you said. every time he reappeared, you would laugh and shout, "cinnamon bun head!"

your husband thought you'd lost your mind, but your running commentary was the best thing the movie had to offer.

tender_square this rusted red incense stick
burns fragrance the way that i
imagine your sweat scathes
skin during summer, pooling

inside the sacroiliac joint.
spicy, sweet smoke unfurls
the curls of urdu—a baptismal
font my body seeks, needs.
