Solid Valentine

Try to hold on to all

your lives you’ll

need them all to hold

on to everyone else’s

take as much clay

as your hands can

comfortably contain

with wrists touching

leaving a small space

between your fingers

at the top of the

world you’ve made

then come the suffering

gods with their artistic

ideas points becoming

planes plains becoming

borderline features

of your own body

the latest Platonic

solid you have shaped.
