For Amelia

Heart in a Tin Can 


Imagine a chrome future

Metal creatures walking the crusted earth

Imagine sunlight gleaming off the above

Mix-matched arms 


I thought I might teach a robot to love

And we would walk together across the cracked earth and then 

I realized the my own chest was the metal one

My own joints creaked and moaned

I can feel myself beginning to rust.
