Lucienne Kim Flavell Poems

1.

I want you to feel
the insufferable loss of me.
I want you to feel as though
you're unable to function
...

Silence stretches between us,
his hands and eyes locked
under the table
texting his mates.
...

They had to knock out a wall
before they could winch me

onto the back of a lorry.
...

I can't sleep in hotels.

The sound of closing doors
and talk of people leaving
...

I miss the smell of smoke
coming in the open window.

You would sit on the step,
...

I found myself
snowed in with you.

I slept in your bed,
...

Across the table
you sink your teeth
into the purplish skin
of your past.
...

The Best Poem Of Lucienne Kim Flavell

Howl

I want you to feel
the insufferable loss of me.
I want you to feel as though
you're unable to function
without me.
I want your body
to quake and quiver
with the fantasy of me.
I want you to sweat
and howl; to run
in wind and hail,
through bracken, branches
and stinging nettles
and find me
in a queue at Tesco's
and tell me
those awesome words.
