If we need a roof
we flip the boat over
where we love we live
our bodies as bridges
an explosion revived my ears
frames and sad boxes
melt away in the rain
we swim over the dam
soaking in the acid of plums
there is safety in fear
playing with each other's hands
the water is boiling
when the worms of the earth
fill the hollow in my skull
I will have a brain again
to remember all this
