Smoke and Bone.

75 11 4
                                    

Light-winged phantoms escape from my lips,

Floating skyward. A mirage of chalky moonbeams.

And the nodes in my spine arise under waxen skin

Like a constellation line.

Smoke and bone.

I was the card of hearts torn asunder,

Your fallen gamble. A lost roulette.

Wine spills from my lips, a drop landing on my chest,

It appears you’ve gained a winning of my heart.

Hearts and wine.
