how you look at the lines
and they disappear.

look to the side of a star

to see it.

make love
out of loneliness.

**** snakes from your skin
one by one and
in masses.

the mother lizard
vomits her egg
and the child
lives there
forever.

until the dust syphons
the bones from this cage
we are a constant, ripening, pulse.

"good morning dave,
i just wanted to tell you
that i said hi."

"thank you
for telling me
that you said that."

the sky is stuck
in a loop
repeating

the tongue is black with words

and dripping sweat

with fever.

it sheds its skin
to shed your skin.

until we're razor thin
and transparent.

youre in the sky
pouring everything
out of your mouth.

i was dry
but now im drowned.

god got old
and i got wise.

everything dies.

love stays young
it gets you high.

its in your lung.
