You Breathe Me

(scroll in landscape mode for intended experience)

One day, I'll really exhale.
Then this agony sack, which only writes
the same words over and over,
will have death coming.

I want you there when I die
and the agonies paint the floor. Can you lick them up?
After all this time, I'm still looking for a
misery eater.
Which is unfair to ask of anyone, but
me and Jesus are in a complicated place,
so I'll keep asking you.

There's a one-in-Q chance you'll read this poem.
I wish you had never seen my work
or would let every line I've written
fill your eyes to burst.

I want to breathe in your soul
and breathe myself out.

An ant demands so much
of the sidewalk.
