Ashes Displayed in Zoos

A stomach blind and explored
Beyond trees, pet-shops
And in morgues I wait
War aches less than parting ways
But some kiss divine
And ignored
In folds powdered white
Electric skin lines my
Cabinets of shame
Where I keep my fists
And names
One thousand birds muzzled breathe
In flames
Ashes displayed in zoos
Your life, it drip dries
Into my eyes
And then
You’re
Mine
