inversion accident

brings a fall onto my own neck.

Should've filmed it

VIII.VI


cold bitten fingers brought to life and warmed

by pressing them between her tight-closed thighs;

the tingling as nerve-endings are swarmed

by increased flow a blessing in disguise.

For with warm hands she now is able

to roll the Borstal cigarette she craves

by using her lap as a makeshift table

and forging nails for an early grave.

She pauses for a moment, taking lighter

and sets flame to the thin tube of tobacco

then sucking through as tip goes ever brighter

releasing her addiction, feeling wacko.
