			<title>To Fernando Pessoa</title>
			<description>I felt happy because I couldn&amp;rsquo;tfeel unhappy.Your lips curled a vivid grin of lifeBetween the crooked teeth of loss.As I read you, time was running outfor usIn snippets of promised smoke up apole.I triumphed and faltered at everypageAnd wrote me less in more leav..</description>

			<title>Beloved, again</title>
			<description>As I look into you I feel there is nothinggoodInside me that does not come from there.And then blatant half-truths exult fromyour eyesAnd coil round my waist like ivy to amaiden wall.You pull me too high for the kite I couldnever be,Yarning your precious silk around s..</description>

			<title>The Storied Tree</title>
			<description>Is always of a color apartBearing proof of the handsThat built its layers of bark.Small hands, dainty wrists-All of the same two peopleWho buried their faces and sighsNext to the uprooted pulseThat holds their skin deep within&amp;nbsp;The softness of the promised paper.Yes, that generous, tearing onion..</description>

			<title>Of life</title>
			<description>A length of hair tradedFor the health of a child,Tongue-tied morningsThat breathe of sweaty worryAnd the scent of hopeRising against the flimsy dawn.I hear colour&amp;nbsp;Fabricating foamy trollsUnder caramel bridges,The way it modulates the eyeIn bright shades of bitterness.There lies the promise of a..</description>
