I go hours without speaking.
It’s as though, thoughts do not pass through my mind.
But in the corner of my eye, subconsciously
I am seeing. Temped breath .
|
Mouth to mouth. I’m meeting you
for the first time…
A primary color connection. Movement,
that brings retinal pleasures
Purifying my state of mind.
|
Hard swallow,
swallow harder. Be stronger. Clear your throat.
Use your voice. Share your intentions.
|
Sometimes I become very aware of my mouth.
The teeth weigh down my jaw, and it becomes very uncomfortable.
It’s sort of painful.
|
Remedy such by heavily drinking black teas.
The hours go on—A comet appears,
and I take a sip to gain back the wait.
