how do I prefer my empty cup?
iced, salted and out of luck
woken up
from that puppy love
stranded on the rocks
aground eyes peel to a pulse stunned
like selkie's sheath's audible
ticking clock
nervous undertone of a tale that's plausible
and misjudged moving hands, gloved

but
to get current, I'd forgot
through the talk, talk talk
all double-tongued
the clicks of my own sea change
to rebirth, my jackpot
dead is shed to peel the cage
until the skin is true that I live in

so, if that's what it takes
deliver my cold water
straight to the face

so, if that's what it takesdeliver my cold waterstraight to the face
