Nameless journey

Your teeth in the moving shadows
Dancing cigarette end bewitching
Lips swallowing glowering embers
I am scorched and burning

The shadows hid you well that night
In a taxi cab tomb
A slow seeping dread
Mingled with the smoke fumes

Familiar landmarks were lost
Rushing by in blinking lamp light
I saw my index finger scribbling frantically
Wet windows of breath that melted
