i have rough cracked hands with lines running haphazardly
looking for a way out
tapering into soft brown and never
knowing where when i stopped
i came i breathed i ran out of functioning lungs
warm rough hands
that leave marks without knowing without caring
they say those with cold hands have the warmest hearts
i wonder if that works the other way round
my heart always creaked like rotten ice
(i needed this out)
