You had bed sores like dross on yr floor, yr mouth snared in a sneer like a cheer for a lost war. You rose up to the revel contemplating yr navel. He had two shirts that didn’t cover much skin and burns on his arms. He gripped into a grin and grabbed ahold of yr sweater – said it’s too hot for the weather. And if you don’t feel like dancing, and if you don’t feel much of anything for me, then I’m talking into my glass. And if you don’t feel explored, and if you don’t feel like putting on records anymore, then I’m waiting for this party to pass. Do you suffer with yr cheeks full of color? You’re so stiff-necked, but his words make you rubber. He reaches into yr pockets – composite docket of pleasure and profit. Yr keys are misplaced, but yr place is a mistake. Tonight we’ll make all of tomorrow’s headaches and singed skin. You burn hot into him. And if you don’t feel like dancing, and if you don’t feel much of anything for me, then I’m talking into my glass. And if you don’t feel explored, and if you don’t feel like putting on records anymore, then I’m waiting for this party to pass. You’re hanging out over the bottom three steps, and I hear what I want to hear, and I disregard the rest, and even when empty, I’m talking into my glass, but it’s reflecting my prolepsis back into me, into my chest, and I gasp and collapse right. And if you don’t feel like dancing, and if you don’t feel much of anything, know I’m so insecure, and when you drop me I shatter like glass. And if you don’t feel explored, and if you don’t feel like putting on records anymore, then I’m waiting for this party to pass.
