uncatena

i'm washing with all my friends in the kitchen, drying dishes turning twisting until we can run out go swimming, i feel you behind me ringing bowls right next to my ears, toe was so clear so that we all could hear when the water washed around us, salty holding us steer, did you ever say oh no, did you ever say no, skinny skinny skinny man with a whale to hold his hand, oh to trade the places fast to be swallowed let it last, i'm swimming with all my slippery beginnings, white linen, sheet twisting, limbs clenched so hard, mouth so resistant, did you ever say oh no, did you ever say no, all i want from you is a letter and to be your distant lover, that is all that i can offer at this time
