devotion is dead

when did my ardor

surprise you?

did it leap forth in the

calm

of the night

or spindle its way into

your mind

your useless head

cracked like an open seam

in my eyes

only the shattered remnants

of love remain

you are my cold Michelangelo

looking up

while I stare mercilessly down

on you

i can't think how to say how that makes me feel. i like it though. i started reading the Eli story but it was too long so i gave up. if something is that long i'd rather read it in print. do you have anything published i could get my hands on?

yeah the eli story is long as fuck. i just wanted a friend to read it and i didn't feel like sending it over email i guess so that's what i did :p
