as the pressure builds,
my head in the vice's grip
O schaurig ists übers Moor zu gehn,
wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche.
Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1797 - 1843) (see avatar) Der Knabe im Moor/The Lad in the Moor

my head in the vice's grip
devours my senses

Save me the last waltz
In midnight's glow, I'll find you
and thread the moonlight
and somehow a dog
has taken itself & its tail considerably away
into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
behind: me, wag.

watercolor love
spread thinly, bleeding, too wet--
distorted, hued, stilled.
