Post Meridiem I watch, breathless in a sea of star-grazed goodbyes your mouth like a nightlight moon-glowed, you firefly you throw your fragile body fiercely atop mine clinking against my surface soft and sweet, I cry knowing you know I am a clear stream my skin a solid mirror and you hate what you see. Night speaks in lavender blue to the walls until they match you and I we watch as our faces are painted with dusk words. We think if we fall asleep with our eyes open the room will blur and we will become a haze of once was. Jade Simone http://thejadesimone.tumblr.com/

Constructivist Your voice is an oil-drowned newspaper sitting in a charcoal pit lit aflame like the innocents asleep under an Iraqi moon their skin a fleshy wildfire carpet, the world watches them like a dinner show and I watch you, asleep on a sail in a sea so full of man-made palm trees and strings of pearls. Thought I heard your voice in a letter you wrote me but instead saw the same tragedies from your bedroom window that became the side dish for your dinner each day. Each time a bomb goes off I want to tell you that you are perfect, that I am a moth still in love with a flame that played death like a harped hymn a handful of times. Instead, I let the stars take you. I let my world crumble like the eight stories of the Rana Plaza building. I fold my heart over and over until I have a whirlybird; each corner of this tiny paper world tells me you are safe, and I play this fortune-telling game alone while praying to something you always told me existed. The Times called me to say “they” were sorry, and I could not tell if it was for letting you taste the coconut sweet of a Thai sunrise or the blood screams that melted in your hands from the desert sun, or the chance to photograph the child finding solace in the Ganges. I remember thinking if I threw a stone far enough it would land at your feet. They should have been sorry for the hallucination fever and the poorly lit milk walled Emergency Room that I wish I could have stood inside to lie and say you will not be a ghost in a day’s time. Lie that I would take you home to a red, white, and blue nest. Lie that we would fall asleep to the sound of a bomb going off and I would tell you that you are perfect.
