TONIGHT, I'LL BE THE SKY
by Megan Merchant |
#MeToo
I’ll take the noise of you and leave a salt streak
across the sheets. I’ll let you caw behind my knees
and cumulonimbus well ahead of the squall line,
your trailer wobbling in the wet-wind.
After, when you blow smoke in my hair,
I’ll catch a puff on my tongue. Swallow.
You’ll call me home, tar feathering my teeth.
Let’s pretend you don’t know my secret—
how everyone said, he’ll be the end of you,
forecasting me dark, which I thought was ok
because I never knew where I began.
Maybe somewhere purple in these
bruised constellations.
Even if I float thin, you’ll find your
way home. You’ll knock, but only after
you shred the door.
