I text. You don't reply. I feel restless. I decide never to text you again.
Two days later, you text. Normally. As if my previous message never reached you. As if those blue "read" tick marks occurred in my dreams. We have started chatting. I'm happy now. I ask about things I thought I'd ask when we meet next. You are typing. You stop typing. Message hasn't arrived. You are online. Message doesn't arrive.

or the pink left on a calf caught
in the trap of a tight sock
longing for a touch of clean breath
dying at the end of a cold metal muzzle
