GUEST POET // Nina Mercep : The Doom We Choose

The air is dying

So are our bodies

We buy a pack of cigarettes

And enjoy the outside

Dying.

Life flinches and

Hides between the drags.

We smile, hanging off the railing

Wrong for believing the way out

Is through a door

Only time runs out

Of homes and bodies.
