undone by circumstance

underneath the down

breathlessly gathering
moss

thoughtful his middle name
 
breathlessly gathering moss

1

little parasites at last
fallen beneath the treads
of the basement staircase
moist, desperate shelters
a chilled memory of humus
the decadence of bone
breathlessly gathering moss


2

impossible to miss
the martial sound escaping
notice, but anyone here
can feel the spreading membranes
spilling in the dark like fruit
rotting in the dissipation
of nights between the wars


3

a growling, howling hunger
curls next to us and makes itself
comfortable as can be
expected, filling the time
we had all we ever wanted
we tell ourselves, all
we ever hoped to want
