ill.

By Corinthian








sore lights horroring sounds
wail and overwhelm
the hollow





glisse, rapture









at night keep still. but let them not talk falsely




chandelier temperature , strep glass



I realize slowly


like damage in the brain















































the stopping shadows


lightning
over the forehead




sinking of you.

    Great work. I love how you used the spaces between the lines to make it seem as if they are feverish thoughts.

    Sounding a bit feverish and liked the play on words of the last line, thanks Cori.
