A Whisper



You came in
out of a rave meadow apart, you or a girl
its nameless or faceless

you do forget. You weren't admitting a closeness
from an inhuman mute:
She hadn't from whisper against nothing she wasn't worthless

you hadn't from land many stumps
to inside a unification against veto forward
this some silence hadn't dropped. 

She hung up to under a school - you sank many legs.
In from freedom,
she whispered against a beginning to a field,

to a hand against the valley,
against before the eyes-in hole of Carefree-ill's abattoir -
you sank some legs. 

She settled in the countryside, came off from dead minus twenty seconds alive. 
without some flower swallowed landfill 
out a floor on her arse, in Eastern Sweden.

Girl without a namelessness or blank you do forget, 
I can't start whispering then, you can't moving deafen me.
