Screws to tight for withered hands
and you to proud to ask
I hold the phone
emergency speed dial
just in case
wires
electric
a rogue current
that envelopes conversation
creating a void
as you work toward my happiness
______________________________________
we lead fractured lives
double-faced
one for you
another for us
The stressful
straining stretch of skin
we are not leather
nor disease
to be cured
