oh how she hid in the crevices of my skin!
each ! rebutted and blanketed by ...
how an —precedes a saccharine "No".
huddled in quotation cuts and liquids screaming,
"i know, i know, i know!!!"
to be blind and honest to clairvoyant but bluffed
well i've been thinking the latter's enough
to make a ; breath like a lifetime sentence
in which i just sit here...
...cuffed...
oh how it hid in the crevices of my skin!
oh how they'll dig, oh how they'll dig...
and how her waist becomes my sepulchre
where our studies, our studies are wrapped in the dark.
—to be blind, to be honest, to be faithful
to trace the words, a semanteme in which to embark.
