wet speech

the face of laundry is a mirror you wipe

the mirror of cancer is a dust you breathe

the dust of ammunition is a gnat you count

the gnat of fever is a word you lent

the word of clouds is a coughing you pretend

the coughing of shoes is a number you face

the number of sausage is a rain you mirror

the rain of memory is a worm you dust

the worm of roads is a breath of gnats

the breath of legs is the laundry of your word
