I open the word and crawl inside its spine, barbed wire, turbine

with dark belly, coil hierarchy.

What word, you ask. Your body a cloud flattened in my hand.

   Your body coiled with mine. Air snakes

over rib cage, cracks into powder.

I say thorn. I say mouth.

—

Desire is criminal. You being here is criminal.

You sip from the delta near my tongue. Ossuary

deepens at the clavicle.

Eyes stutter open. Limbs crepuscular over the bed frame.

I watch you shower after.

   Tributaries, confluence, mineral stains.
