radium women

how the hands are heavy jade when cupping shame to drink from again, again. 

we 

are 

poisoned 

yet still glowing 

irresistible 

death; death 

irresistible 

swoon, factory women falling from smoke stacks 

sick girls like stars shooting 

across immense darkness (to end) in darkness again
