forcing a smile out of those eyes,
like prying open a safebox with a spoon.
Is everyone else blind, or is it just me.
I want you to see. I want you to be...

come undone

I'm yours.
But where are you?
I am here, stranded in wastelands of my own makings.

Outdated maps, blurry eyes.
I'm getting left behind, I've lost the way.
...home.
I've lost the way to you.

i wish...

you probably woudn't have seen me.

dotdashdotdotdaashdotdotdot

insipidly dragging my weightless frame.
the birds are circling overhead,
the animals lie in wait, unseen.

waiting for that moment
my tiny black, barren heart implodes.

razorblade slides across this neck.
help me push it in, just one peck.
severed skin, crimson drizzle.
feed the ants, have a nibble.

mine. i can't find.
yours, left behind.
ours, akin to non.

equate

too many minus signs.
additional negatives.
recipe. bittersweet.
choke on that.
a thousand heimlichs and broken ribs.
