relationship post-mortem
meeni levi
In retrospect
I should have known something was up
When you told me an etching
Of Saint Sebastian
Reminded you of me
The arrows cutting
Into my soft belly
Nestling
Between protruding ribs
Before meeting at the epitome
Of contradictory expectations
That I call my heart
Never home but in the wound of it
