Counting

open up and swallow me as
I have no other place to be and
I would use the time off from thought;
take away my sword of words and
leave me in the waters to shrink
as all the chlorine dissolves me;
pry out my teeth and eyes, leaving
my tongue to wobble on in
endless fantasies of comic relief;
give me pen and paper and a
braille calendar so I might count
the days to the end-of-time.
