I heaved my lungs to you, like hot tar
gum spirit, so plural and
effuse,

and I kept myself warm and
quiet, and still

to the arrival

and to
the departure
of breath.
I wasn't entirely sure how to categorize this, because I'm not entirely sure what I'm getting at.

Kudos to you if you catch my little medical/poison-control-advice references.

(And I know the correct adjective form is "effusive," but I didn't want the extra "-ive" syllable, so just pronounce it in your head in a way that... doesn't sound like a verb?
Anyway.)
