Chambers
The chambers of my heart are grimy, slick with bloody splatters of the person
I no longer am. Moldy collections of people
I no longer know.
Beggars come to its valves, pounding for what they cannot see,
They don’t know there is no way out. I fire arrows blindly,
Don’t you dare come closer. Until someone can honestly make me believe chambers
Aren’t just for secrets, they’re for lovers too.
