it goes without saying:

everything

the air that settles
on your chest
awaiting sound

the language of your local fruit
the swirl of rind
their glyphs and runes
like sun-bent cheeks

those
bulbous blots
in utero

and creatured time
that sleeps between us.

i needn't tell you anything
or speak my way inside of you
you've doctored in all my aspirations

your furious dreams' wild successions
no longer carry
my peculiar
cursive

because
i am written
on
x
