Gutter

by Trevor Plate

plastic palm tree
shades the pink wall
envelopes of blue
and your bite
it’s
crocodile lust
on me like a fever
my oiled eyes

wrapped around your voice
these limbs/the ceiling
and the room gets more liquid
and we get more liquid
until we’re wetter than the rain.

Trevor Plate
