Water:

named for Callista

means most beautiful: Mother

made me this thirsty

Air:

smoking in winter

is bad for you, but the air

this time chokes you back

Fire:

this isn't love, it's

destruction: darling meet me

at our gate, to hell

Earth:

this planet, like pie

enveloped by crust, do I

eat its feelings too?
