down the aisle
June 27, 2016
the stink of alcohol
intoxicate us
with their wild substances
powerful as psychosis
what’s hijacked our brains?
unorthodox, wearing addictions
like veils
swallowing words
those lips a bit too thin
too hard in their refusal to
express
a molten tongue and those
healing hands
guiding envy in ease
in her sick hunger
she’s tough
chewing on words stuck
between my teeth.
