the chills never saw the summer heat
not that we would ever meet

I’m a little sick inside
and don’t even know what to say

it was my participle dangling
all over your jagged verse
I liked you
the way you cursed
when you came

It’ll never be the same
worse, better
apart, together
spreading chapters in unheld inhibition
in every conceivable position

I craved you
my drug of choice

becoming my voice

you made me better
when I was a little sick inside

  1. Oh my goodness, Tim. This is just amazing… a three-way allusion. Such a beautiful interchange of reference from one to the other… withdrawal symptoms, sex, literary elements. I see the analogies melded together, the physical and emotional relationships. This is really smart. I love how you use rhyme in this piece and the second person narrative approach, which makes it more powerful. Very talented.
