Caleb Groh


Cascade of crimson ribbon
I've comissioned you to glow
Steaming like old engine #9
Nearing jericho

Nestled night was kind
Blue in the baddest commute

Who you let in is a mountain to me
Whose sweet sacrament fills the space between your teeth
Sleeps in my bed and makes the coffee weak
And offers some to me

Sangria summer, I repent of ever equinox
Fennel fox, I held you in a cave
Hugged you 'til your brother came

Tandem tapanade,
Bleak in the burlington fog

Was a camoglauge kid
Cut my teeth on your kin
Where every callous was kempt
Sought to satiate your sin
And every prophecy bent to see you holy
And offered up to me
You alone
