i could taste her with my fingers feel her sweltering tongue like a red field burning until our lives fell to snow grottoes icy labyrinth dismantling us a bone at a time
we studied each others shifting decrepitude watching each other rot naked, twisting to white ashes like a fiction of flickering transparencies drawn faces ***** downwards every day a dark-eyed Halloween and i cant hear her voice
still a giddy pig with **** talk floundering in the mud laughing about death my heart is a secret terror my breath tangled in your words every syllable like a pound of grain breathing black pebbles
I'm facing destiny a dark jazz like all before me and you my beloved until all is parched dust with one of us still left standing haunted by the absence of the other
