The Wastrel’s Kiss

 

“Oddly Terrifying ” by Dragan Bibin

 

The words that tumble from your nicotine stained lips

are bound together with rusty metal barbs crawling with Clostridium tetani

the air around you is choked with sulfuric acid and a dash of carbon monoxide

nothing can grow in your shadow

and nightmares, when they dream, scream your name
