Exact wording of threat

"Sullen" like you said:
"It's a sullen situation"
eviction notices rain from heaven like acid or ammunition,
your comfort clothes warm a corpse in an innercity dumpster
alongside your photographs and unfinished novel-
your shoes placed neatly at the door.
I need a street
that leads to house-
that leads to a
well stocked liqour cabinet
that leads to
forgotten fingerprints
and scars without backstories
I need to be warm,
but not forget that it's cold out there.
I need music with no rhythm
I need a pen with no ink
I need a thought,
I need a thought.
