like chlorine on skin
awkward dialogue printed
between our headlights

it clings to my throat like limescale
like babylonia, we will fall

after nine
hundred years of magnificence.

it tastes like coconut milk,
this savage betrayal of
"friendship".

like the sweat behind my knees:
stick fast leave slow carry on home

ward-bound,
no-one ever gets home on
nights like this
I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT BABYLONIA.
Do you have any more facts? I think it sounds beautiful like Atlantis.

I think this is one of the ones that makes sense to me.
