brow sitting tight on me in bed my

body

tightened

our anatomy

both altered since

march

you didn’t need much

I forgot mostly to make sounds

I think we could have cried together

I could have offered that

free of charge

on the house

conditions

you talk

I keep my eyes shut

I say you can touch me any place I say

the ways you can’t touch me I say

how I’m sorry that happened to you

I think about pecans and fennel and pear and lemon and dill and

home and

the weight of different parts of me

my brow grew tight later

at home

in my bed

hips contort

signals running vibrating hot noticing

my neck and feet noticing

history noticing

potential energy

my body downwards spectrum

static to pressure
