A Yellow Thread of Cotton Like a Piece of The
Sun by Stephen J. Golds The rooms
are empty. The plants are dead. The cupboards
are moldy. The crucifixes are dirty. All of
your things are gone. I found a yellow thread
like a piece of the sun from that dress you wore on our
anniversary. I placed the thread on my tongue and I swallowed
it. That frayed fragment of something that used to be everything.
The garbagemen
have
all of your belongings and all you have left me with is this
time and this space. Time and space that cuts me to the
bone.
LOL by Stephen J. Golds It feels as though someone
has closed the blinds on me. As though, I have
been left in the city dump for these shadows. Locked in a piss-stained
room with night terrors and a full
bladder. Full of worry and full of something heavy and cold. She tells me to: pull myself
together, like a pair of curtains. Jokes make it all
better. But, they don't. I'm left wondering how long this artificial
smile will remain carved on my face and not fail me.
A Day in Summer
Years Back by
Stephen J. Golds The day of the procedure, I still can’t
bring myself to name the crime we committed together, I waited outside your house. The island
was hit by a biblical typhoon that summer and I wondered
if it was God punishing us, even though I didn’t believe
in any Gods then and still don’t now. Underneath the
eaves of your neighbor’s garage, I waited for your
parents to bring you home from that place, with nothing but time and cigarettes
and prayers to a God I didn’t quite believe
in. Your neighbor, the kind old lady with the dogs, brought
an
umbrella outside and offered it to me but I refused
it because the rain that was on my face was a mask
for tears. I just waited that day in the
storm with my sins and my cigarettes and my time
and my prayers and my ghosts of Gods and my guilty relief.
Hospital on the Hill by
Stephen J. Golds All the kids with their grins & lunch
money at school. There with you in that other place. Words flashed naked
behind glass. Clustered people incessant about their hearts, minds
as though they’d been bought broken secondhand, non-returnable
& receipt gone, warranty in a language unspoken. Smoking
desperate, blue smoke plumes, drifting hallucinations in
a cafeteria odorous of last week’s meat loaf, piss, and nicotine limbo. Hands tremble winter in a
sick summer sun. There with something that was once you in that place. Then
leaving solitarily with unspoken words in mouth broken, loose teeth touched lingered
upon by tongue.
Stephen J. Golds was
born in London, UK but has lived in Japan for most of his adult life. He enjoys
spending time with his daughters, reading books, traveling, boxing, and
listening to old Soul LPs. Glamour Girl Gone, his debut novel, will be
released by Close to The Bone Press on January 29th, 2021.
