i still *** every
time a thought of
you comes across
my mind but the
*** comes from my tear
ducts instead of my genitalia
and they’re just antibacterial
enzymes: water ·
salts ·
antibodies
and lysozomes;
the day you left
all spermatozoa left
my being it was like
the hole you left
in the air was a black
hole shaped exactly like
you, a vacuum eternally
thirsty for my ****** fluids;
every pore on my body
became a weighty abyss
it’s just the tears
you never find
as pleasing
offerings
so you took your suitcase
and everything i am
in a bag out the door ·
that moment
reminded me
when you’d take
out the trash
and thereafter would
be spending the night
trying to put
up with how little
space i left on the
bed
that moment ·
you were gone
· you were done
but you were
also there still ·
forever remaining ·
all at once ·
that was a really nice
trick you never had
the time to teach me
and so
· that moment
with your back turned ·
every step
you took was like
lightning
in slow motion
and then there was just
the door so i let the electric
company put my lights
out and spent all our meant-to-be
life savings on candles,
lit them all up ·
had some champagne ·
stepped in the tub with my clothes
on after i filled
it with gasoline,
googled good lakes
and lit a cigarette.
