Sam's Valentine

Only have this time

before they take me

thirty thousand

feet in the air

to focus on one body

hanging at a time

yes I’ll have some coffee

while I wait

for your call

rehearse disasters

our species has flown

one at a time

try to think back

to your fiery heart

on which we’ve

layered city

after city even

unto the thirty

thousandth layer

of crushed bones.
