In short

  • There is a reality born
    of smoking a cigarette
    after sharing bodies,
    fluids

    a vision of god

    and the all encompassing truth
    that this

    will never happen again.

    Love is a word spelled
    by dishevled blankets,
    human hair and
    limbs;

    the act of setting each other
    on fire
    and then dousing
    with cold shoulders

    and colder rooms,
    alone.
