Literature Text

your voice tears through my skin
in a meteor shower of burning stars
and seats itself in a layer of icy mercury
over the skeletal framework that is my body
somehow, somehow, hooking itself into my nerves,
and from there to my mind with claws that smile in derision
at what you call weakness
(what i call love.)

and then it commands me to look up,
into your eyes, and then it's too late
to wonder if i might be thinking about love the wrong way.
(not that it matters...)

I've been there, and
it took me a year to dig out.
