Fracture
the taste of liquor on the lips
 pressed together and
 quietly searching
 behind the closed door
 in the bedroom
 in his dreams
 
 the taste of blood on empty clips
 amid broken men and souls
 his name on a bullet
 beneath a smoke-filled sky
 in the war zone
 in her nightmares
 
 the taste of tears on fingertips
 of the white hand that 
 hangs out from
 beneath the white sheet
 in the white room
 in the end
