Datura Falls From Your Mouth
Everything in me danced
on petals
.
Until, one day
Chains and lanyards, around
my ankles you extend fingertips
with hooks, grabbing the words
that spill from an opened
mouth.
Drag me under water, submerge
me in contagious irony fueled
by kerosene sticks ignited, then
swept up.
Letters
of I love you
we called ours, aflame behind
your nonexistent eyes.
Your demons flood in, fighting
for me, waving their fallicies
in the air.
My arteries become thick,
hallucinations bloat my mind
Visions of asphalt spew
from your mouth, turning
Into datura
Cries, circling this room without
walls, a broken mosaic screams ultimatums, as I withdraw the
bridge, watching you become
weak
Snow begins to fall, as you
and your demons vanish
your flames gone, as crocus
shows through shattered
ground
on petals
.
