Temperature (A Symptom)
my sickness is enveloping
my list of symptoms endless
weakness of the knees
tendency to swoon
a temperature that changes like the weather
my hands always cold
my face always hot and flushed
i know how this began
my inconsistency is your fault
because my heart grew warm for the first time
with you
with your hands
and the heat they gave me on cold nights
under warm stars
and a cold moon
