/stretched
thin
binding
loyalty to
a bottle of beer.
conceiving
a destiny
too futile to
oppose.
the deciding
stems burrowing
somewhere
off shore.
susceptible.
needles
on a granite
floor.
and you’re
piecing together
every insinuation.
and at
my suggestion
like
tumbling.
something fierce.
the words
were lost
.
in the back of
your throat.
