a naked death
essentially i or
just being that
a letter
never meant to be
later
& alligator you
more spelling
where words are—
nt being
so have seen
between the lines
i again
laying in the bath
three inches of water
maybe less
& more
cooling quicker
than i can clean
saying these are teeth
beautiful white
jaws around
me in porcelain
begging me to slip
every time
