Dedication

Princess Amalia of Orange.

Foreword

Princess Amalia of Orange.

When I Fell

Illustration for When I Fell

All the time by me

in a hidden dream

vision pair viewing

but so false with

when you find me

with this script

its directing

table water swimming

where tears fallen

share in esteem

their earnings

tier letting

so you see

see me.

I Saw a Cowboy

Illustration for I Saw a Cowboy

If my eyes are windows

knowing what I condone

they're also weep silos

yet, past soot lore lows

still in burning shadows

when in bounty cameo

none following grows

as much reflection

none so shallow

belonging to no lasso

you raze the row

you bring the stove

warming up my rope

but it doesn't, slow

for what you suppose

is a cold heart stiletto

her catwalk intro.

With Gusto Low, So

Illustration for With Gusto Low, So

So, I hope you chose

chose a time she froze

froze a grit in your nose

nose seeing: owing no home

home to her fashion disclose

she fell off a horse, not piano.

I Let Him Lie With Me

Illustration for I Let Him Lie With Me

I'm imperfect by her mire

my dear, my hope supplier

that old friend I require

speaking often but a liar

ever still, ether tender

to make me a resenter

the wife of the sniper

is he home for dinner

blaring his ol’ seltzer

or am I the listener

the one, the better

a favourite reader.

A Man So Uneasy

Illustration for A Man So Uneasy

Maybe he'll rest

free of my illness

his mind did digest

encumbering thirst

threads his etiquette

but who has he to tell

miscreant lust decibels

and what's he to present

or has he a lone fondness

so by public hassock spent

he says, I wrote in silence.

Acknowledgements

There is a game of dice going on; the faces have hearts for pips, and without anyone's knowledge, it's a non-zero-sum game going on all the while. I only found out after I met the princess. Isn't it lovely?

I'd love to thank the Royal House of the Netherlands for such an opportunity. I love the family of beautiful princesses. Of all the activities under the glowing sun, writing poetry just feels so in tune with the elegant grace of sisters beautifully woven together in a family.

A big thank you to my friends who beat the phlegm out of my system, who get me revving, and my family, whom I'm so grateful to. Thank you, Richard and Kathy Hilton, Paris, Nicky, Barron, and Conrad. Thank you, Tessa Hilton, Carter Reum, and James Rothschild. I have immense experience from being friends with amazing people—so many to call out here: Taylor Swift, Addison Rae, Beyoncé, Chantel Jeffries, YesJulz, Drake, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner, Khloé Kardashian, Kim Kardashian, Mariam Rod, Abigail Bergstrom, Tyla, Ariana Grande, and Elon Musk.
