when my teeth grind,
the fatigue fixates on the
leftside of the jaw—sliding
down,
left, the rasping rivets itself
App,
rehension
i, aware of the grind,
reposition rightly for balance
though the act is an act of tilting
the rightgrind feels awk
ward i'm accustomed to
leftsidedsuffering
so much so,
the act of teethgrinding,
routed right,
feels different, divergent
an altogether remote motion
App,
rehension
App—
a slide which establishes static,
fosters friction,
smiletilted
this slide's gone electric
galvanic, charged, stirred sliding,
slid sordid—
App,
App,
rehension
