Neck back

I am wearing the old green dressing gown you gave to me for sleeping.
I can't forget the bribe I took to get it.
'Tip your neck back love, drink some more'
What you didnt know,
is that my heart was already a gristly dead,
my eyes already bloodshot blind with panic,
I can't remember but, 'neck back, neck back. Love.'
The birds are breaking past the glass,
the frost grew green and cupped them with both hands.
Like you love, I let them hold me.
