words what more than silence, criminal
shaded meanings plump like the mien of a night-strewn beast.
words what more than sounding for it
the night hemming into, less than a fugitive by definition
words do I deny the static of soul when quiet then
places the cholera in our abdomens ?
to say when the nature of the tangent is a voyage
of the story you’re telling, masked behind a non-sequitur
that does not intersect elsewhere issued by
a lack. where else are we only slightly connected
when we move to break a point, or to distract
a face once again foreign, your name emerging as whimper.
coming out denied.
words what more than revenge, your sound less than an alternative
bandwidth confusing its meaning
coming out undisguised.
