barometric pressure zone of suppression
silence on deaf ears, visual communication
aspects unrevealed meeting in coded
collaboration
they'll appear together in dreams,
wrapping cords around each other's wrists
you & I, the most unknowable
trading eyes from left to right
we mistake coalescence for calm
synthesis for ease
they laugh above us soundlessly
we grip on to one another and hold
you & I, the most interchangeable
sleeping fitful, staring into,
every atom
losing heat by the second
a kind of meeting that
rewrites the past and
re-frames the future
enough to make anyone's skin
crawl off their body
and take off shambling rapidly away
from its unhoused soul
