Emily Veinglory
Not
another poem about mortality...
she's
gone
well
her body's in a room
(if you count
that)
but she's already burning
sheez, gone
her
body's sin, a room
if you count a... well
(a deep
room)
or is it me that's burning
with each breath?
Jesus,
God
she's not in this room
we'll
visit her
body here
(a waiting room)
for death
Please
God
spare me such a room
(hell)
the body's
sin
is life
when life is gone
(a
deep gloom)
time to turn in
visit her body here
in
case
she's not gone
