my fingers are wind -like and sewing themselves across you by Wendy Gealthe stars have fallen out of their little sockets
crashing down like twisted rubble-wire and burnt black as night
my spiraling pain combusts with each spark
star-grieving and tastless
your lips trancing my scars, making them breed, star-rash
spreading all across the sky of me
twinkle-twinkling, little passion tales,
whispering wishes in my ears
my fingers are wind -like and sewing themselves across you
and skin, ever-warm and in love with your words
i am lying-- wept with sickness,
blasting them louder-loud inside my drunken head
waking up and out of each neurotic dream
