Cavities
Sure we can keep it light and I can write about the birds,
but don’t you want to anchor your tooth on that sweet juicy marrow of me or anyone for a little while,
peel back that thin wrapper like disposable skin to see the shards, feel the dents, taste the reds.
Drive real slow
past the car accident.
To be linked in the confection of necrosis
confession is a drug of choice for some.
Like your talisman of someone else’s murder weapon,
but you know homicide
because it feels like home.
