|
Slumped up against the sink |
|
Hair plastered to her cheeks |
|
Marduk t-shirt sticking to her skin |
|
Refugee from a disco in old East Berlin |
|
Weightless |
|
Formless |
|
Blameless |
|
Nameless |
|
Stray syllables were gurgling |
|
From her throat, one at a time |
|
Face hidden from my view |
|
I let myself imagine she was you |
|
Only weightless |
|
Formless |
|
Blameless |
|
Nameless |
|
And when I washed my hands |
|
I ran the water hotter than I could stand |
|
Half rising to a crouch |
|
Sinking back down to the floor |
|
In your walking, keep your head low |
|
Try to leave no traces when you go |
|
Stay weightless |
|
Formless |
|
Blameless |
|
Nameless |
