you foster position in my yellow rooms your voices is cadence like gauze curtains pulled back in the wind, into yellow room like this, your words and mine fit together your words become the surface of my skin my painted concrete walls your words are a puff, are planetary rings around me like this my body breathes with the breath of my

calm the surface these covers flipping waving turned back bring me closer to this touch this touch all over me quit the sea the crashing flow the fall of all all over me
dash
arms crossed and the goods careening out grocery bags stumble and kiss the ground she's running and- is something before or behind? is a woman more likely to run away or have something desperate to get to before her? the rape statistics, the catcalls, the fear in her eyes never turns down the dial up high - but still damn, there's a lot, a goal, a peaked tower a place to be and woman's right to fucking be there - to aim for
