set my lungs
ablaze. on my heart a trigger you pull,
fragile
carbon monoxide, suffocation. lie me in
a tub as did cee with her laminated virgin mary
fragile
in the oven, feet first. on my neck
harsh imprints of your fingers
so fragile
crack my bones like knuckles. last of all-
the noose.
[ still so fragile ]
