[ To : The Other Women  ] [ From : The Other Woman ] [ For : All The Bones Burned ]

Let the Liars 
burn their bridges 
over the white ash bones 
they leave unburied

Burdened sleep 
pardons the guilty
Beds instead 
the unknowing

One, 
	cast into fire 
The Other, 
	left aflame
Everyone is blameless

Tell me her name
	Or
I will scream it,
	just the same

Say it, 	serpent tongue
truth soother
		Say it
		I know it. 
		Speak it aloud.

Leave the Liars with their secrets

Say,
bon voyage- 
	scattered a Liar’s 
insatiable mouth 
	out to sea

All the false kisses-
	landing on lips
wishing up meanings
	spun the same tellings

Leave the Liars to their rest 

Let the Liars 
tell their stories 
over silent nothing.
	Here lies:
	No remains.

The bones, the bridges, Babe 
		I buried.

I love you, Babe
		I buried.
