Means nothing

Warmth is just

kinetic energy

which is a real shame

because we are immobile

in bed

and I can swear

you’re sweating

from our fight,

or maybe those

are just tears

that have gone

cold from

movement.

*

Drag me to hell

because at least

I’ll have the heat

without the inconvenience

of the cancer

of the heavenly sun.

*

I love you entirely

the gas spews

and yet here we are

entirely out of love,

containers exhausted

and burned by cigarettes

and someone else’s kiss

which you tells me

means nothing,

though it is there

as you speak,

and you kiss me

and I wonder if it means

anything either

and if it does

should I stab my tongue

like this or something else,

let you see the cuts

I have

by opening your mouth

and tearing it

apart

the way she did.
