sleeping with the fishes☠️
do you know the difference between a dead body
and an alive body? i mean from personal experience
for starters the warmth evaporates ebb reek ebb reek
now redolent of compost? earth? sacred bodily substances?
so hard to know schmo a neighbour called my bro a schmo
he was from Caracas via the holocaust he knew redolent+reek
but seriously once the warm fades and this happens quickly
a stiffness+chill pervades creeping sheets grow damp with
human stain fingers curl in Martian postures
it’s kind of ET-esq WAX ON biggest breath known to mankind
chest heaves savouring +life HEAVE HO (schmo) c’mon a little
gallows humour won’t kill you!
then the penultimate followed by the most sacred ultimate last
human breath EVER where you are going breathing is overrated
bodies irrelevant
so cherish warm un-ET fingers watch your peeps breathe and try to
live each of your own human breaths cause soon enough lungs will be
irrelevant and you’ve gotta make that okay
