unburied

the nights have taken hold
and your words,
have taken hold 
where have all my lovers gone -
underground - underground

come, let's give blood again
the mobile unit parks 
outside the library
on Halloween
come make a fist
with me
come let me breathe you


before it gets to dark again
before it gets to late again


wish me happy birthday?
let your body be my
cake 
 
the filth is rushing in
and
the blood is washing out
and my thoughts are taking hold
of you
unburied
