Catalogue

i just want to sit here
catalogue
picture of a bone
with the pine needles
in my hair

and think about
the fears i thought i'd shed
long ago i was imagining
the stars
crown on my head

i don't feel anything now
and who would uphold
until I find it and run it all down?
i don't feel anything now
he takes his time, vary the placement
until it's all sound

i don't feel sexy
i don't feel amused
but i will
try to undress you

tethered to the wall
by the fears i thought i'd shed
long ago i was imagining
but i don't want to

i don't feel anything now
and who would uphold
until I find it and run it all down?
i don't feel anything now
he takes his time
vary the placement until it's all sound
