sheets for walls
see through the threads
there is sun outside
here it's dark instead
and your silhouette 
on my pillow-floor bed

you had to know I wanted you then.

my head, heavy and sweet
a bowl of lead 
your hands, your feet
on my bed

you called me a laugh 
and I called you a treat
and you're lying, asleep
on my floor-pillow bed

and still, my lips
the kissingest red or something
neat, is it in my head
the smell of wheat, and bread
in the street, and people
awake in our stead

hot tea, a reptile 
on a steel beam,
a peck on the cheek, 
cheesecake of the week, 
my love in a box 
of tartrazine, it's cheap
but it's strong and deep

eyes wild, chasing a fly
a beanpole possessed
"he's a big one,
he's gonna lay eggs"
a strange, towel-whipping dance
"he saw me coming for him"
murderous "they came too early
this year" manic choreography
amanda marshall is worse than all the flies in the world
yet we allow her to fill this kitchen

i didn't get fucked and i didn't get kissed, i got so fucking pissed

i think it is a good kind of pain if your throat hurts from shrieking at nothing in your car on the way home from work alone (just to see how loud you can go) 
(very)
