She has a shaved head that reminds me of a crooked-smile-ex; that choked on cigarettes and words too contrived, painted in a negligence for humanity and a belief in uninformed nothingness. Her body curves like backroads I've been lost in. Skin as pale as an eggshell, I'd imagine she'd shatter under the olive robe she calls a dress and bounce under the kickstep of organic flats. Eventually she will become too much of an idea, she will evolve into a misogynistic poem, and if I were to imagine her naked, guilt would flood our fleshly- alcohol-stained-continents, angry between every slur, loving between the shadows of phantoms I once knew.

Between the Shadows
She has a shaved head that reminds me of a crooked-smile-ex; that choked on cigarettes and words too contrived, painted in a negligence for humanity and a belief in uninformed nothingness. Her body curves like backroads I've been lost in. Skin as pale as an eggshell, I'd imagine she'd shatter under the olive robe she calls a dress and bounce under the kickstep of organic flats. Eventually she will become too much of an idea, she will evolve into a misogynistic poem, and if I were to imagine her naked, guilt would flood our fleshly- alcohol-stained-continents, angry between every slur, loving between the shadows of phantoms I once knew.
Killing trees swing back and forth, hang our men with loving force.
