Crash colour pinks and blues
Rip burn scream and quiet
Hold breathe ragged torn
Shock sharp serious sweet
Ice cold, death grip.
Silence in the ears.
Silence in the eyes.
Silence in the mouth.
Silence in the lungs.
Beeping. Beeping. Beeping. Beeping.
Electric shock.
Death defied.

What seek thee, heart.?
The kiss that makes a still-lung
