She brushes her teeth Spitting sins down the sink Splashing water through rivers of laugh lines on her cheeks And wiping maps off her hands She brushes cities out of her hair And undresses her mistakes. She kisses goodnight Lust and   Words spoken like wildfires With a galaxy in her mouth and Stars flickering out on her tongue She floats in mellifluous dreams on stained sheets Sleeping soundly Having worn the world Like the sky wears the stars.

A Bedtime Routine
She brushes her teeth Spitting sins down the sink Splashing water through rivers of laugh lines on her cheeks And wiping maps off her hands She brushes cities out of her hair And undresses her mistakes. She kisses goodnight Lust and   Words spoken like wildfires With a galaxy in her mouth and Stars flickering out on her tongue She floats in mellifluous dreams on stained sheets Sleeping soundly Having worn the world Like the sky wears the stars.
