I said to her (a mark)

I said to her who sold you on suicide (a crucifix, sharp edged)
I said to her shut out the blackbird (choice, blemish)
I said to her the cushion was a white tree (smooth light)
I said to her my silhouette belongs (carved placement)
I said to her communal longing (seen)
I said to her blasphemed pet nouns might zap the flesh (once quiet)
I said to her some elements are tiring (affixed to history)
I said to her whose tirade (lay-by)
I said to her give me a moment to line up the dream with this (relive)
