excuse me are those nipples growing out of the wall?

this is not an apartment
this is a catacomb
though there is no rosary
or crucifix
you me
carving stylized fish
on the air
eating from cans
behind always closed shutters
you say you've seen all of my skin
yes every pore is numbered
small violet flowers
intensify the forest
and still we stay:
your stare leaving no exit wounds
and the walls
absorbing flesh
Abstract image
