the gore

i am the shiver
i am falling through the cracks
you know i am your woman,
nothing more than a
body
body body
nothing more than that.

you are so magisterial
it is magical on my skin,
the next day when the
remnants show you win,
and I was searching for the
prowess only to see the
mirage where I mistook
my eyes of fate as
a smarter way to fall.

look at those creeping sneak previews,
did you hear the spoonerisms i couldn't yield?
the life was her rhizome of gore,
and when she left
the roots would sprout more.
