salivation

she whispered
into my ear
the meaning
of our wrists

why
temptation
is stronger than
redemption

that
the sky is a cage
and the ocean
is made of tears

she said this
in the night
on the street
walking away

me
shouting back
through the
black heat

that
her mother
was a
murderer

her father
was a drunk
and we
were martyrs

living off of
drugs and sex
like animals
of love
