Three Poems by A.J. Huffman


I Dreamed I Was a Seal

and you were a shark,
predatory and prepared
to attack.  I knowingly dove
into your ocean, baiting your teeth.
Neither of us was surprised
when our subsequent contact
turned both our worlds red.



Because There Were Things Missing

Seven sleeping capsules.
His keys.
My heart.  Failure
is what happens outside
the dark.



Pieces of Heat

In this growing, moving softness,
you are a valium.  I swallow
without thought.  You handle like liquid,
coating my mouth in repressed desire.
Like a prism of memory, you tickle,
and I choke on my own
desperation.  Together we have become
a prison of blindness.  No bed remains
unstained by our regret.
