sweet dislocation

the saline signatures of your last night's goodbyes
parallel your wandering wonders' unforced tight sighs
when your lungs sunk slow
to your knees, weak-grown,
as those reinforced moans are being overdone

and you can't help but notice your knuckles have lost colour.

so in your fetal un-comfort, you loosen your grip
on your fled wishes and times-turned-to-memories
to catch your breath and
smell the foggy future of a sweet, new dislocation.

  1. I like the alliteration thrown in there. I think it adds to the pace of the piece.
