i smell someone else on your breath
as if by
some magical force
the wind
twisted your
syllables
into something
unrecognizable.

but it smells like someone else
not a folly
like pretended
or
a new set of lungs
it is the distinct smell
of someone
vicious on your shoulder

grasping your thoughts
and falling angels from the sky.

tracing my pencil fingers
down your crooked roads
i draw lines with inspiration
that never

cold machines moving
back and forth in and out
with circles and lines
that never

what if i want to
believe that there's
something underneath
that never
