Chapter Two: Tombstone Love Note
My everything
I found your letter inside of a bottle and didnt know what to say
It was broken further down the cold
ink spilt hallow but such a shallow grave
read your poem like it was life in itself
start the hope like the waters were too hard to navigate
but it figures that if I was going to build us a home
well then your heart would find its way
it smelt of sea salt and your fathers favorite poison
I'll never forget that day
College ruled lines clouded by the liquor
like a water covered painting that if exort the spectrum with blue and use there of
like a piece of bread to absorb the damage
that bottle of seacrums shattered against a seashell
and re-rote the story that it would tell
to any little girl who might pick up that white washed tube
expecting to hear the ocean
listening for the crescendo in the crash
when at last
she'll hear the echos of their whispers
these bottles will carry my heart hope
and the currents will be kind
and my lovers letters will return to me
and our children will grow to find that all is not for not
and though all is not yet here
their parents
they worked hard for way

and the storms honored their appeals
to see that though my fathers drowning
his bottles float above the waves
and though I used to dread the water
its waves would be faithful to crash every day
until at last I see your face
then dark will sing
Ive been picking up splinters of lumber for the floorboards
and wondering about all of our splinter promises
like even though we didnt have control over their breaking
oathes like those don't account for much
I loved the beach for the way the breath of God rose out of the deep
and I hated the sand but Id tolerate it to hold your hand
and watch the sun sink into the scene
feet buried just beneath the surface
molten love buried just beneath the surface errupting
volcanic unable to keep beneath the surface
but broke like our parents dorment
surface level
crater of the marriage that looked more like a coffin everytime I read the note that I stole out of my fathers casket before it closed
he wrote it to my mother
the woman I never met
but made me feel like I knew her
and this is what it said
