wordless goodbye

an apology isn't one if it's just a springboard for insult
the last word tastes bitter in your mouth.

you are a drug, and i suppose i am one too

this was doomed from the first breath --
the cigarette put out but still smoldering

i watch you drive away with goodbye halting at my teeth
as the smoky moon climbs up the broken spine of our world
that's crumbling
