Speechless Possessions

the day turns
here. the night
creeps passed.

i write people. i
give words
not theirs but,

my own words
i shove down

throats. i lose
my lip. when i fight
my legs give way.

i swallow not words
but my own...

sweet desire,
how shall i feed
myself then?

fighting is such
a ruthless battle
in the basement

in a music hall,
my lips burst open.

who's blood?
the sound of dark.
the drop of
a ring? a tuba? a tremor?

reverberations...
my legs gave way.
i don't know the meaning...

what i cannot say...
you must.
