I did not think to know you like this. A burning flame in my throat taints the saliva dripping off my tongue. Like someone has scrapped their way past here, I think of rocky bluffs and salt poured in wounds. Needles hit the back of my nose and I lose my steadiness. Weakness in one knee and my ankle rolls. I see the moon wide in my window. She is silent as she watches me, fish eye glazed. You could trim around it and hang it from the sky, and watch that bubble filled dome sail through wind currents all on its own. I reach for her and feel the tension in the joints of my finger tips, unable to unfurl from grasping for long hours for the truth. Unable to crawl back inwards to pull out what might have been within or rather to soothe a soul. Eventually the glaze cracks and I feel the insects crawl across the surface. I know the feeling of my jaw better than my spine. I didn't know you better.
