a mental red flag poses,
erect and proud; sturdy, pure

a messenger: I have something to tell you.

written incoherently, imagine my words
burning time; slowing flames across the page –

ignition: read this vulnerability with your fingers,
just.



nonfiction: confessions of the kind of love
sold with three breaths, even if
your hands tremble, detest it! and haul
back
I’ll admit; I’ll admit it

in the letter that’s crumpled
and in the heart that’s bleak.



a mental red flag lowers,
hung and limp; bloodied, warm

half-mast: mourning the blight adoration.

I really love the red flag metaphor. Partly because it reminds me very much of something I once wrote, but mostly because you've done it in such an amazing way. *lurves*
