We hooked up.
My sordid parts
and your twisted love.
My erstwhile addiction
for broken things
ensured a three-act drama
prologue
passion play
and death scene.
A need to script the action
assured
that we would break apart
like wriggling snakes
segment by segment
until without voice or limbs
we at last
sang and danced
our way out of love.
