eat, ate

matching platter to platter
you and I feed from kindred
sources

stomach linings cramp
knots of grace and stain
samples of our slurs
atlases of ago, past, gone
painted maps of pulpy memory
all belongings we wanted
ruined

and when abdomen acid
can't turn the trick
slated souls clip under the
neck
