    Soul, Medium Rare

    Whenever I smell
    hot oozy tar,
    I almost rejoice
    ‘cause I also feel charred.

    A snowflake stays pure
    only until it lands,
    every fall bruises,
    snow knows, and I do too.

    I filled wounds with gold,
    got them shiny as stars,
    so that all the glitter
    would blind prying eyes.

    Isn’t cotton candy sweet,
    but with a marred aftertaste?
    Marshmallows swear that
    charred is their best shape.

    Adieu à Dieu,
    I still see you from afar.
