here–
how–

help.

heart: a choking thing–
clawing. shallow.
screams with no sound.
nothing–
whispers go unheard.
again.
ruach: (n.) spirit, breath
where?
everything–
tilting, giving way.

nothing stays.

lost.

skin.crawls.tightens.strangles.bones.again–

Daddy?

remember me?

remember me.
if this cup won’t pass—
then resurrect me
slowly.
