a house 05:13
a bra undone. private pales, soaked in sunlight, conform to the hues of her skin clouded with bruises. i have no nakedness to unveil. foreclosed torso. no, she doesn't live there anymore. the sun has never seen these parts of your body.

i'm at a loss i'm at a crossroads now but my phone's dead and i'm jealous of it

bathes asia 02:22
i would turn my body into windows, but i know youll just jump out again. chest chapels for my hospital head. my back has become piles of hospital beds. andrew! andrew! where do you go when i talk to you? so beautiful. sew beautiful. inhale pillows, you're drowning. i buried my wife into her wedding dress. well wishing / wasting quarters. we wear this bed pretending warmth & flaccid locks. armpit eclipse. ribcage rise with breath. clinging cologne & clothes on the floor. her pale ripples around my fingers. unmade beds / sweating limp leftovers longing. this house is a garden where we grow without windows / without water without words / without witness we withdraw to the floorboards. 'forget me' knots your novels! (i can't read your handwriting) arching spines: like firewood. a naked only he knows. my clothes cough limbs too long to climb. ive overgrown these sleeves. blushing tightly. birds our window! curtain wings drawn as hiding places

the bones 02:18
oh well , i guess this was your first chance and well, let's take off our pants all we'll see are clear glass figurines nothing's ever as it should be but what should be oh well, all i can ask of you is to skin me
7.
come home 01:03
where the forest ends, and skin begins, an ocean is perspired. gritting teeth / gripping sheets. nervously grazing; hair stands in poor posture. trading exhales and fever dreams; before we shut our eyes to each other. knowing well, this is not love.

olivia 02:06
holding the ashes of the house she had grown. "there is no room in the ground for us." she said that the seas are wasted on an undeserving earth. no exhales. chrysanthemums bloom from her pores. pedals she left behind rot in remembrance of the beauty they were. everything realized too late.
9.
skin trying 06:41
we bathe in fevers. gazing angelic & sun-starved. exile the world from your naked: angels are silence in this bed. suddenly sisters in ashes worn as if skin. collecting hunger to keep your beauty: a uniform of famine. heads filled forgetful & bibles bound by fractures. gasping raptures from broken jaws & defeated lungs. ships bedridden: hard-ons worn backwards. parents plead our baby pictures but are only promised patients. please keep your dreams under your sheets. all these teeth wont fit under my pillow. suck toothpaste back through your teeth. (it's not the only thing slipping out!) i have no monsters under my bed (just fire.) she prays with her elbows on the bed. she wont sabotage suicides to have this baby. she belongs to her stretch marks. take the dog out back! dont let the children see. i'll tell them he ran away when you burry him with the others. these shoes taste nothing like birds (you lied to me). we were tucked into the same skin trying to fill our mouths with songs that only God was supposed to hear: FIRE PLACES ARE NOT HIDING PLACES! no water, i don't want life. spirit, the sirens ring for me. – "somebody is going to find whatever you decide to leave behind." so i never saw her again

about

a naked like honey
male ribs, womb of woman,
under useless breasts.
stretching: skin falls
between intercostal spaces.
we dangle from branches,
stressed under the weight.
creaking for their mothers -
where did they go?
we used to be so beautiful
the grass cant reach the children's toes.
