contort your stature.

avert your eyes.

love with your smile
but
not with your mouth.

teeter on bedframes

for lack of restraint.

hold yourself, dear
&
say no names.

touch

fine lines

but only dream.




dream of pressure

on your spine
&
cold hands

anywhere.

press lips

on broken bones
&
beg for attention.

clean your mouth out
&
don't speak.

nails to sheets

for you

wander
not
stray

reflect upon

lungs heaving

heavy

as

sin
&
untouchable.
