because we were arguing I can't tell what first seems important
reaching to the outside with one of your very long arms
because I had just realized existence was in your room
and you looked at the dirty green carpet and the bed was gone
so I decided to jump because I knew I could make myself
and had logic and your hair was writing a word
like instructions and nonwords whose features were shifting
even back home where a heart obviously not inside
already brings the mirror through my leg not letting me
because of this sense of duty up against it but then
arguing about what it means to be mean right now
as I do
