IX.
from Elgin Pelicans // by James Stotts

you blessed me
like the supraliminal logic of a smoketree in bloom
color no animal in nature can imitate
unless it’s that firsthourofthemorning
as it sets upon a cloud

you lay down with me
with a scent on your lips part my own
no telling what i would give you
if i had anything other than my body
