I breathed, breathed and
I rolled ruffling
clouds and
didn’t use the spoke,
spoke that caught
the innards of orbs
and was still,
was still closed
stitched by the lashes
stitched in dreamless veins
you latched to me
barring my extended legs
-they are warped, twisted from
yours-
Left, I am placed in
the deep exhalation of
icewind breaking through
your teeth
