i've got your heart right here
gnarly muscle bloody beating in my hands
squeezing it to find out what's inside,
now my clothes are filthy with regret.
i have your eyes right here
your little windows into space
rolling everywhere but mostly
in my mind. look at me.
and then i took your brain
from its safe place between your ears
prodding... immeasurable impulses
fancy messes, perfectly contained.
where did your body go?
i didn't see a soul...
maybe you left it hung up
safely inside your home.
don't you worry, i will play your organs
to make sure that they still work
good friends do this for each other
all the time.
