The tenth haiku

There's no back and forth
Left to be found here and when
All around are done

To sand I speak
and it bears
my intensity
Time circles about
and I fester
become fevered
about now
it insistence
on rolling
over all
heatedly listening
to nothing
or never
waiting on runouts
inexhaustible leaving
without waiting
for you

inhale some carbon
**** a brick
men with guns
starving
women with knives
carving
and there's some
raving
under a wave
caving
we held tomorrow
up
robbed it
the evidence
will drown

the glass reaches out and grazes my cheek
its cold grip encompassing me
the surface shiny and sleek

it etches deep into my soul
every single imperfection
each taking their rightful toll

much, much too much
so sorry to tell you
binding's not that good of a crutch
gender? i barely met her!

sometimes im nothing
i am vaguely person-shaped static
all but a blur lying in bed

sometimes everything is hazy
and im there, but not
walking on autopilot

sometimes its not me
im talking and laughing
but i can never see or hear

sometimes im awake
and im living and breathing
but god, i wish i wasnt
oof

When do you notice
your hands

under a lens
typing for you

golden or some
color i can't name

fretting or
doing my bidding
