"Thinking about you
I got on the bus
and paid 30 cents car fare
and asked the driver for two transfers
before discovering
that I was
alone."

The only thing left are my cigarretes,
not even a stained canvass in winters first breath.
I breed in the gutteral burn of a strangers chest,
the madman, I am,
a booze hound for vacancies,
a florescent shine to my face,
I did not recognize it today.
The last time paint lingered on my skin
was before the haunting awareness
of scetching unanimated objects,
to make them faint together
a dance they make,
before this madman, I am,
told me to wake.
not even a stained canvass in winters first breath.

"These are MY words,
those are yours"
the possession of the handicapped
the bulbous bruised
I give myself the fight back against his frightened sickness.
His easy tears somehow my forgotten instigations
the body makes with imminent pain.
You pain me
so I place you
behind sprains and old injury made to heal on it's own.
The two times I broke your flesh, I meant it
as it was meant to kill me
to realize how much it hurts
to watch thinness transform into your stretching skin,
as I have known
I have spoken
as it does happen.
It does
and it did.
And I break my hands on your words once again.
