long thin nails breaking free from shape at every scab brains arrange your lips are crooked in a mouth full of lies you are trying to get out of something that just can't you deny. liquify throats and swallow them into you, it still won't stop the scream for the truth of what you do. trees cut down taking away all but stump, paved roads covering nothing less than lungs. drain down the water from every kitchen sink, still never will you submerge every word that ever reached. narrowing through veins leaving oxygen levels plummeting. moon's story of the light from the sun, dimming before any eyes can adjust. marrow spread within clinging to the undesirable, keeping bones apart. joints independent with commands let by without an answer leaving me with motionless moves.
