Confession At The Movies
In the flickering light of the
tinsel screen, your intent face,
Radhika, is the knife that slices
through the sarcophagi of years
in which laughter was a cynical defense against liminal spring, and my mealy mouth gnashed its teeth against hard winter bones.
This is the reason why I angle my body over yours across seats, and place mouth against your throat, to ask how soon can I drown again?
