Wild Beauty

jessica Care moore

Such a wild beauty

extracted from black ashes (echo)

A series of calculated crashes

I simply

call them romances.

I photograph you in my bed in the morning

I miss you and you never leave

Your scent remains, unbelievably

I pray to all the Gods

and my lies still don’t believe in me.

You dance inside the snow

Slush beneath your boots

We talk philosophy and hardcover books

Sometimes i find the heart you took and carry

It around, a handsome crook

A savior among a crown

of thorns and petals never worn

Of flowers dead and letters never sent

Did you see the way the summer wept

Did you feel my bones break

inside your hands

?

How fragile are the strong and mad

Who dare to wrap themselves in flags

Sewn by slaves and walked over graves (echo)

Jessica, you say, you must behave.

Yourself. I don’t know what to do with wealth

Cept spend it on a love affair or place bright flowers

In my hair.

Just tell me what color I should wear to a funeral

with no people there?

Bodies asleep deep in my chest

Kiss me, since we are all that’s left

In love, in fear, scared half to death

Humans aren’t so interesting my son insists

We have no wings. No power beyond our century

We are given less, and still we sing.

We dress the part

I keep the veil, and pawn the rings.

I want to steal Saul’s new hat and Dante’s bright green boots

My fashionable brothers.

You. Brooklyn bridge. I am hula hoop

Swirling dervish in a perfect suit

Oh my love, my memory swoons.

Such a wild beauty extracted from black ashes (echo)

A series of calculated crashes

I simply call them beautiful massive

Oh wait, I believe I wrote romances.

Protecting me from the brutality, the wounded savage

You, that’s me. Pointing fingers deliciously.

Baby, please hold onto me.

I only want love to hold me for ransom. I know he is.

They are all so handsome. Perhaps, a very good looking cancer.

I call your name, pray you don’t answer.

Such a wild

beauty.
