A Series of Lies: dandelying


I am turning your hands
when really I should be folding these eggs
and in between my fingers I
feel hopeless disgust

& then bedtime.

and it must feel, in my dreams,
like a hunt sent out
against my legs

because mostly I feel my joints
ache when you are around
not when I spend my days
in dandelion fields tirelessly escaping
the idea that your face

is not quite right.
