## Description

is what I told you  
to dry our pillows  
once in February

because the moisture that once made our eyes heavy, now saturated the cloth womb 
responsible for our momentary reprieve 
because unmoving quilts were favorable to the cold investing our bedroom

because you needed it  
even though it wasn’t much 
a collapsed vein  
to a neglected limb 

because the deviation had become too great 
because the bones still stood 
where they once did  
left without opportunity for abandonment 
 
even though everything else had quit 

we no longer laughed at the blood flowing from your fingertips 
even though it didn’t flow much anymore anyway 

imagination always evolves to obligation 
love always evolves to complacency 

some mornings you seemed like you  
but the eerie facade 
became apparent 
as the sand fell from our eyes 

and all we wanted was the stagnation we sought to avoid 

and we both would look at the ceiling 
wondering when the cold would stop  
being so cold
