in a drunken stupor
yet, the whiskey never touched our lips
we stumble upon paths & words alike
in a state of dreaming
- but how can it be dreaming
when everything feels so raw.
we creep through alleys
weights tugging on our shoulders & ankles
scraping the pavement as we drag the skeletons
hiding in our closets
out into the light
