A COMMUNITY OF WALLS

came in

drew devils

on the wall

new house

dictates new routines


threw

her arms

around me

a choke hold

of love not regret


she tires easily

mistakes

mine for other voices

i beg to differ

and wind up 

on my knees

all night long


who's easier

on the eyes

than i

this pale form

empty

of broken baggage

unclaimed.
