3 incomplete explanations, for st. elizabeth

i.


he dreams the walls
are filled
w/ dead & dying bees

dreams his
children have drowned

opens his mouth to
scream and
then wakes up lost




ii.


no food and the
children are starving but the house
they die in is beautiful

the song their mother sings
goes straight to number one




iii.


gives him wings but she won’t
tell him she loves him and
so he just keeps crawling across the floor

just keeps laughing at the
idea of a dying sun
