Lambaste

bombs underfoot
explosions in the distance
you know it's only a matter of
time
before you unravel

garbled voice over the life-
line
and i'm pulling
like teeth
running tongue
over my own
tasting the sweetness of my recent memories
and my future plans

tears and raised voices
won't solve this dilemma
because you want it
but you don't
and that's ok

"mm hmm"
is the only salve i have

time
tasting
you
