lyrics

from the tiniest tone your tuning fork bones
are an orchestra stoned to death
(as we're caught in the cold huddlin’ and holdin’
each other as rain pounds cement).

please, Regina, take me to your dance school.
i didn't know you then but now i'd love to.
in ballerina shoes your veins are cut hose,
and they're chopped stems along your pale rose feet.

pretty pirouette pose perfectly exposed
all the squiggly calligraphy
that had run down your stomach in whispered rows
for a theater of me to see.

stretch! visualize! eyes closed in a furor––
against a steel rail, wood floor in the mirror.
a malleable skeleton swallowed––
drizzled cigarette smoke in my hollow cheeks.

tremulous wavelengths...
a music box tinkling...
ribbons that waver...
bankrupt twirls hang, lingerin’…
