	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
