Bio
Articulacy of fingers, the language of the deaf and dumb, signing on the body body longing.
Who taught you to write in blood on my back?
Who taught you to use your hands as branding irons?
You have scored your name into my shoulders, referenced me with your mark.
The pads of your fingers have become printing blocks, you tap a message on to my skin, tap meaning into my body.
Your morse code interferes with my heart beat.
I had a steady heart before I met you, I relied upon it, it had seen active service and grown strong.
Now you alter its pace with your own rhythm, you play upon me, drumming me taut. -winterson


Wilts at my foot,
Sinuous orchis
In a nest of root-hairs and boredom--
Pale eyes, patent-leather gutturals!
Warm rain greases my hair, extinguishes nothing.
My veins glow like trees.
The dogs are tearing a fox. This is what it is like
A read burst and a cry
That splits from it's ripped bag and does not stop
With that dead eye
And the stuffed expression, but goes on
Dyeing the air,
Telling the particles of the clouds, the leaves, the water
What immortality is. That it is immortal.-plath


Stripped
you're beginning to float free
up through the smoke of bushfires
and incinerators
the unleafed branches won't hold you
nor the radar aerials
You're what the autumn knew would happen
after the last collapse
of primary colour
once the last absolutes were torn to pieces
you could begin
How you broke open, what sheathed you
until this moment
I know nothing about it
my ignorance of you amazes me
now that I watch you
starting to give yourself
away to the wind-rich
