Sweet capacitor, send your strains to the overworld
Unraveling your preferences as you attempt smoothing
Over a guayabera long-lost to my tabletop empire-fraying
Interests compounded by the hands easing the disaster
Biting-fording-tearing-bargaining-sighing to reddened cheeks
Appearances' loss is the gain of as unreliable a narrator
As Highsmith's Thomas or the finger I have on your pulse
Throwing your back out with so much wasted bathwater
Mustering your harpoon in service of this hurricane
Closing eyes to avoid losing a memory to the corridor of mortality
