since I’ve been here I don’t even

wash my teeth that often

I eat pretzels and cheese sandwiches

without caring whether or not I’ve got

leftovers between my teeth

whether my teeth are yellow or whether

my mouth – holy thing – smells like shit

my underwear I change it once every 3 or 4 days

and even then I don’t have the heart

I feel fine in this warmth

with a fragrance of sex and chopped baby
