can't

as blood bursts inside me  
 
those old cold lethargies  
reach for the adrenaline of last Friday 3am  
to lay blame  
 
since grandmother death  
rests elbows on me  
 
while she spits and sucks eggs  
 
in the barely oxygenated
thick white morning  
 
what story would have soothed
 
with regret i cannot tell
