Out of control

     Out of controladrenaline fizz, I haveto drink my wayto the other side of you. I hold youlike a crucible like a crosslike a communion wafermelting between tongue and teeth. It is a beginning,I can look for signs, portentsI can make you up, ordeal open handed with reality. I think you are interestingyou are fascinated by mewe slip away from body’s songfrom getting wet and dirty. Three hours awayyou slumber, and there isa glacier between us:you iridesce in corners watching for neutrons; I lick my wounds like a foxscreaming at uncertaintyprowling the neighbourhoodfor signs of you. I want to make you mean somethingI want this to be hugeI create a cinema for us to star in,the dragon lurks mesmerised by my power. I take pieces of youextract your smell from fingernails.three hours away you slumber,while I recover, moment by moment.
