94

close my eyes then drag me around
this house is down, these streets too narrow.
kiss this smoke and strip in silence
sing along to the morning's sparrow.

i know i've lived once and i'll live again.
loosen your grasp and let me in
back in the room where we stood still,
to peel my skin against my will.

i won't refuse to swallow this pill.
