TEETH

Stocks

in shops up in white boxes

We consider fucking

for a second in the stockroom

Stand behind the counter

In the doorway of your new college

Feel foreign

Try to learn the same language

in a different way

words pass out through

un-pretty, noticeable chunks of enamel

Yes definitely foreign

In the dark his tongue

traces their uneven walls

On the internet the voice is pure

not snagged on canines

Dogtooth on your mother's jacket

Dog breath in the curtain light

Ajar

Shit it's tomorrow -

It doesn't break a smile

or the purchase of your body's warmth
