I rarely title poems.

General
I wrapped my name around your little neck,
so leave that worn skin beside the sea;
I’ll arrange the game pieces inside of me,
now form your words if you wish to object,
else live like rain upon the ocean waves,
haunt the spaces within matryoshka dolls.
At dawn, the soulless wail to morningfall,
our mouths make accursed words as we play.
