Crossbones by P.A. Levy

in our shipwreck you

scrimshaw

my bones with shanties of your

glories

use my pelvic bone for a map

of our world

fully explored

and embroider your name

face

look of disappointment

into my skull

twenty thousand leagues below

sunlight

carving how i betrayed your

heart

into my ulna and radius

with a depiction of your spirit

trapped

inside my ribcage

and you remind me how you

clung to my lies

like driftwood

and now we’ve both become

old ghosts of the seas

that passed in the night
