Tongues


Long side the world's largest free standing tower are shallow seas
These bodies silently socialize, connected as tight as genetics
Now check it

Directly next to your stacked sturdy vertebrate is your spleen, it has one function
It craves to keep your dirty everyday clean by intentional destruction
Then builds up again unseen, every red blood cell in conjunction

But there's a melancholy callous
that has scabbed you deep like incest
Swatting insects
there are thousands, won't let your hands rest

One stings you with a single-point injection
Drains you dry
It silently remains in you, and replaces your bones with radial erections
You it halts
You it haunts

And the socializing becomes drowning in and out
droning on and on
babbling
as familiar as plaid patterns

You'll have everything in common with everyone
Scrape off the teeth, scrape off the skin
Without sin,
out of many,
one
nothing to mark the earth with but our flour bones
