The Roost

Β 

we f*ck like birds
a 20-gauge RemingtonΒ 
slug through our breasts

whiskey shrapnel
exploded
in a forest clearing

like two ghosts playing
Russian Roulette
in campfire embers

the backs of our
throats packed with
charred dirt and worms

we f*ck on the road
caught in the grill of a
pickup truck

like splintered
toothpicks in a blender
of kerosene

like beaks wet with
velocity and bile and
eviscerated caterpillars

plume molting
in the dust of
a drunken drag race

we f*ck under the
windowpane
back down

legs up
