spider legs
enter under
thin skin

webs of desire
capture the *****
secrets hidden
in crevices
of bare
nakedness

tying knots
in nooses,
stringing our necks
like christmas tree
lights
glowing yellow
on glittering snow.

clockwork
hearts
strike midnight
and the haze
disperses

what is here
is the nuts and
bolts
spewed from
iron lungs
tiring of forgiveness
and valentine
card love
