there is a longing that is growing like a tumor in the spaces between my ribs. i imagine hearing another woman's name coming from your mouth to be a poisonous cloud that will enter through all the pits on my face and leave me with creamy brains that spill from my ears. i'm sure she's much easier on the lungs, a lot less of a woman to take in- asking for less words.
