Untitled

By Tibi

Your mouth is a cave

Salt crystals and cigarette ash
Echoes
aches songs hums
I crawl into
under you
under your
underarms

Ashes to ashes
dust to – hush

I must (the hair- how it falls)
must leave

We turn into shiver and sweat
Fever then dust

To dust

(the hair – how it falls when I tear)

Dear dearest
read me to sleep
read me of us

You fall
You crush when I bend

Start from the end
