Honorable Mention
Something Smoulders
Amulette

Something smoulders
skin against tissue against muscle
Blood finds it's way around
a thorough and prophetic navigator
screw the politics of this
believe in the memory of once
believing in a wish
survey dreams lost to that sense
of inferiority on the subway, muting
the pride on the inside as I covertly
scan the crowd looking back at me
the dawn, the crack dividing
the whore and the secretary
I'm on fire when you don't notice me
Even if you don't mean it, just hold me
Still, anyway your fevered form finds
comfortable
Even if my march through August isn't
so brave
isn't your idea of a great time
Even if you find my ego too brazen to
complement your ideal of shaded submission
Even if you despise the way I draw in
my nicotine
Something smoulders when you become
King Kong stomping out every note of my song
