I was 23 the last time I cut into milky white flesh Just below the pelvic bone Hushed screams under shallow curtains of air and water Deliver me I'm awake So awake Coercing the wind to carry me Forcing lucid dreams Slowly choking up flem In awe of flesh like textures that touch the mouth Lips teeth tongue
Why do we carry these things within us We'll be better tomorrow I swear
