going to the dogs

All that shimmers has shimmered enough.

My shirts in lurid colour

and vulgar belts and trinkets

stand up of their own accord.

They walk out to the dogs.


The day is a white, bright intensity

where nothing can resist the 
urge to step out of hiding.

The dogs become fashionistas

while I ruin myself in rapture,

like a potato left in the oven
to bake endlessly.
