headchecks

back and forth back and forth— riding the bathtub wall riding the rocking chair back and forth a smile, a laugh, a flirt: i'm falling down again the way my heart goes— back and forth back and forth.

i see only the scleras all white and bloodshot i can't bear to look at blue eyes anymore they give me hypothermia, frostbite, and back stabbing pains

back and forth back and forth he comes to the table, offering nothing but himself and his laugh blue eyes, white guys, time flies
