we wake in the morning clean our dishes white walk unpaced to our buses and wait for round headlights to stop just before and open it's doors. we step up and over making gestures to work soldiers. We are doe eyed, deer like, lovely, darling, grappling to a thread too tight-- we snap and fight. We bare knuckles with metal straps tied down in the front knotted in the back. We kiss we lock lips force fingers where fingers don't go start at the top, end at the bottom touch and talk, slut and fuck. We run laps after school eat lunch with the cool kids only want taste it's something we waste and again we take for granted. Stopped at the heart we drench and start wake up in the morning end in the evening routine just has to wait. |
