alike as yet
Redrawing my heart
On the traces of a young love’s palimpsest
I’ve had a full quarter-century of learning the pace
Of your footsteps,

of stone
When you look your best
Lay me down to rest
Like a leaf of stone
As a palimpsest

three ticks of Time.
Pixels of my skin in the sun.
c palimpsest limp
Under layers of lacquer.
Forshaken,
The quavering crotchets of my stave.

The brutalist, formalist, international palimpsest.

The sun is turning buildings gold, which once were steel

Bitter pretty palimpsest
I dreamed that I remade myself
I dreamed I pierced my cartilage in Michigan

What's up?
How's it going?
The unreal cheekbone
She is so dreamy
That she got features on Fellini
Deadpan, unimpressed
Archimedes Palimpsest

helpless
In this palimpsest of a bygone codex

Bureaucrat, 
Revoke my Visa, stat
I won't be needing it
If I can't see Stephen's mast

brush away the fear
We can worship, we're obsessed
Get inside when the tides recess
Turn the beaches into palimpsests

It's that time of year again 
I get all nostalgic so I pick up the pen 
Write into a palimpsest all of the words that
Can never be

Palimpsest
Facsimile
Verisimilitude

life's palimpsest

Spitted things they dropped among leaves
Or buried beneath (Didn't know we were seeds)
Kernels of truth assuming the lead
Slowly fed by

On the last page, we find the palimpsest
Of an ancient alchemical almagest
Where the mages presaged
We would read our way out of this mess
We are a book club

of your palm
Mapping out all that you've held
But nothing you've touched
And the prints you leave in your place
All blur into one
A palimpsest of being

in front of me
Asphalt is making promises
Streetlights bear witness over here
Can we make sense of this concrete palimpsest?
My own geology of memory's

my face anymore

Shackled waves
Rise and crest
Caught in the eye
Of a palimpsest

Walls of TVs
Pointing at me
Hands are tightening
Arms keep turning

their lives
for this palimpsest

don't speak too soon
silence becomes you
it becomes you, young man
silence becomes you

we are lovers living
underneath

horrors
Is projected on its surface
But we'll blame it on the moon

The sun slipped away
Dripped blood, pencil grey
A torn palimpsest stapled to exposed

the seed in Århus soil.
Seed belly harnessed to the toil.

of the glass
ct shapes behind the blinds
Framed by window dressing

Fear of fading out
Means your whitewashing yourself
Like a palimpsest

Your palimpsest
Your tigress
Nothings ever well
With me
Giving all I can
And something new
And you
And you
And you
You're breaking me
Breaking me

the pupils
cnchored to the wreck
Nothing left

c gift
Forgotten in a blink

Every void once held a spark
Phantom stars extinguishing
Palimpsests of spectred
