crawling, creeping,
slowly shrinking back
into skin and nails
and bones and hair
and glistening ectoplasm.
backwards thinking because of
infinity eyes and a lovely
spine that was never there
to begin with.
and, I smile,
but its always your
smile
even when I tell myself
that the geraniums
cannot cry forever, or
that the sun can only eat
so many shadows
before it
explodes.
