love is such a misery
shallow poison weak and petty
lead bellied heart hardener
hands that feel hunger
for touch
the cold clammy sweat of
bitter jealousy
the smell of your warm breath
when you snore
my body is a team
of animals
visceral menagerie under house
arrest
the tigers lack restraint
scratch at the furniture
say things they shouldn't
and will
shred everything to spaghetti
and eat it
if you fuck with them.
