My Breath

My Breath
“You are miscarrying…”
Pulled by a long white thread, my breath exhausts
My eyes fade to steel
There is throbbing but I don’t know where
Voices muffle to tires on rocky pavement
“It’s nothing you did.”
Burning out of me, life
The frail thread
Attached to fire
Singed and gone
I want to hang up
Rippling through my chest, sanguinary blasts
I swallow and crumple forward ever
so

slowly
