He Is Here, He Is Not Afraid Poem by Lora Cooley

He Is Here, He Is Not Afraid



Our hands wander blindly in a forest made of flesh
Our eyes speak in signals
Twist in patterns

The horror of a city handling suicide by cyanide
Completely inadequate
Like lovers

My fingers down your side
We sleep with shadows

Dress yourself in shame
