Description
at eleven eleveni decided it was time
to give in again,
i pulled out my cards
and played ativan hearts
under my tongue
until i was numb.
at nightfall whenever
i sat in my den
and accosted myself
by counting to ten,
one two under
four seven under
how many under?
my mouth found an o
that i could not voice.
o, my ativan hearts.
o,
o,
fall to
falsity,
stolid
serene,
o.
the taste of chalk,
the thrash through
my bloodstream,
so sudden
and immaculate.
the way
nothing happens
all at once.
much like the world
quiets in a kiss,
how my body
longs for this.
and for this,
i contend with
my conventions,
infirm against
my strong intentions.
o,
o, my ativan hearts.
