tonight
i'll keep you alive
with not being quiet
enough
for you to fall asleep
in your secret tunnel network
before you pass away
in your own hatchery
you decided to stay
you turn your head to me
you laugh so hard
through prayers and weep
don't look so horrified
you'll scare the ghosts away
how can i smother you?
keep your bed under me?
keep your extremities
take my calamity
