Mia Felić, analog photography (silver gelatine print)

Tuesday morning in bed
relapsed from Monday night in bed
we aren’t getting any closer
unless one of us becomes a cannibal

staring at your neck and lips
I wonder if we have already

overstayed our welcome

I can’t escape these fingers jungling
or decipher their geometry

like those sprawling interstates
you love from cities far too big for me
like the spider webs I dream to be
but always seem to tear apart
