Analysis of the bernoulli effect
physics extra help
5:30 at night.
i am the student
and you are the tutor.
dyspraxic hands & poet’s mind
marvel at how you move math.
maybe, that is love.
the coup d'état of a digit
that lingers on soft skin
basked in promises,
we look towards the sky from the classroom window,
as the sun hits the horizon
we think of a car crash,
two bodies meeting
with greater velocity
increase in constriction
as your thoracic cavity gets smaller.
as you close me off through the back door.
then come back just to say that you can't breathe without me,
i have only ever heard you be literal!
this time, there's no friction in your words.
we think of embracing
something that can't kill you
as the sun kisses the trees,
it knows it will fade
but it doesn't care
because it values what it's been before what it is.
it leaves behind streaks of beauty
all my finger imprints on your skin
is a tache,
café au lait cachée
from birth or touch?
did you ever know me?
we forget the difference
of our discrete bodies
we watch models bouncing against one another.
you don't notice that i am staring at you.
