Poem by Eleni Cay (Slovakia) Published in The Ofi Press issue 46 |
Memories crab-walk through the soft edges of summertime, drying up the long sweetness from the driftwood.
My desires for you sparkle like warm caramel but there are just white shards on this beach.
Our love colours have dissolved into a chalky finish. I now collect you in other men. |
