remember when i decapitated you
black mahogany, marie antoinette
slow motion suicide as your strings
shrivelled like burning hair.

i speak in maths, though i failed my class
these vibrations are my sublimation
it's noise to them but for me it's clarity
so i don't pluck my callouses and bite my nails

raw. turned out, turn in.
i curl like your strings, little flesh ball
encumbered and about to burst.
i can't hold eye contact with strangers

but i can face up to the world with you.
bought some gorilla glue,
victor frankenstein, my scary love
welcome home, my 505.

my valentine.
