1.

I love you so much that I carry you in my mind wherever I go

I only have to unhinge my jaw to hear your voice

and when I need to see the world like you see the world I just pop each of my eyes and let you peer out

when I tear back the upper part of the scalp and reach in I can feel that little simulated you that’s grown

along the inner curve of my skull like a tendril

2.

1 lover’s heart 3 cloves of garlic, minced 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary 1 tablespoon of butter salt and pepper to taste

Rinse the heart under cold water and pat dry with a towel

In a large pot, heat the butter add the minced garlic and fresh herbs sauté until fragrant

Place the heart in the pot sear all sides until golden brown.

Lower the heat let the heart sit until tender serve hot but remember it is polite to eat every bite but the last
