drink my warmth

"drink my warmth"

i tell her that i am

in and out of luminance
in and out of darkness.

demure in the gloomlights
she lay her hand atop mine. eyes transfixed on my own
and spoke: "how unreliable a narrator you are."

her palm is warm on

the roof of my digits. she touched my hand i wondered
if she knew it was i who found her that night.

her, a precious thing.

her, a precocious thing.

& she'll smile the way she tends to smile; through
perfectly constructed teeth only to speak with a soft voice that somehow

drifts through the caverns of my skull so simply.

simply.

simply.

why must you be so visceral?
