you or you

you will die when the bees
sleep beneath your chair
you will die when the bees
wake up beneath your chair

you will sleep when a leaf
grows beneath your tongue
you will sleep when a leaf
burns beneath your tongue

you will speak when a hammer
turns in your cheek
you will speak when a hammer
splinters in your cheek

you will remember when a window
melts in your back
you will remember when a window
shines in your back

you will eat when the floor
is red with ants
you will eat when the floor
is black with ants

in tlilli in tlapalli
