In Between [POETRY]

|

My fingers curve gently, nestled where the heartbeat hides 

mouth bore hush of deep sutures — silence condensed destitute shape

Did you know? Symmetrical scarring. Parallel aching clavicles

pleading stitch wounds into my skin, for you

too late. crus draped above me

siphoned grief molted mechanically

and so I fell — magnetically drawn to the northernmost pole, darkest gaping hole

obscure feeling… worship known only through means of you

sinking subterranean: juxtaposed astral perdition

Well, your head always was in the clouds (haha)

bedrock through topsoil, past fossils and fungi; mine gaping forelimb clawing upward 

and return. memory of us, two pirouetting worlds with conjuncted pulse

flowers bud in oropharynx, choking pollinated sobs rippling in bruising sorrow

I beat only for you.
