MRI

Midnight thunder

at the breast bone,

a fist on a lover’s locked door

 

I pretend not to hear —

try instead to breathe deep, sleep,

and prepare for the nurse’s next call,

 

for my torso to flood

with absolute cold

at the sound of her voice,

 

until my guts are a scrim          

of liverish ice

that takes all I’ve got

 

to warm and disperse

with the faltering flame

of blue calm —

 

this, not the scans,

the samples and needles,

my blood count or cell stains,

 

is the test.
