lyrics

Portland

What I never told you:
I drove to Portland
because I missed you
(middle of summer,
the town empty)
Even Portland stifled me

It’s come down to this,
your name, a mantra,
a few snapshots—
variegated kites flying high in the stale July sky,
the mystical smell of pumpkin in your creaking staircase

They burned in Wenceslas Square,
walls dissolving into ether;
my mother, sixteen, a child of the century
And now we burn,
soaking in milk and honey
