it's not the things

it's     not 
  the things  you 
      said    
that 
   broke      me, 
     {avert 
your   I's}
      it was 
      more    things 
         you 
      didn't  stay.
willing         or 
    not
we're 
  prey:
         hurray!
 amble   & 
gamble   oh 
    you 
  paper  nap
  kin!
         punctuate 
 trivial  dreck.
should    
      we  stop 
 writing  these 
         secrets 
?
   are   we  
    speaker
giving away    wires
too    much  & causing 
   lightning 
         by  it?
   bleak 
    hive  mechanics
          herd 
  harmony halos 
   a meek    
module    consciousness.
   the 
      science   of 
ruin  trumping  the 
      meat 
cakes of           dawn
 with simile     damage & 
diuretic         deconstruction.

an 
alley    thin
         shadow   simian
  blends doorways
      at         
  13 
  o'
  clock
