Don’t Act All Innocent

Anthony Hanible

Your guilty flickers

Like a crooked rune

A mark the air refuses

To swallow

Your shadow moves first

That’s the omen

Even your breath

Leaves a symbol behind

A thin frost line

Naming what you won’t

So don’t act all innocent

The signs betrayed you

Long before you spoke
