tut tut

there's a christian
under your pillow
saying
tut tut

there's a pause
in your dialogue
saying
tut tut

there's a stain
on your polka-dot tie
saying
tut tut

there's a blue hue
to your face
you held your breath
too long
now

there's a crowd
around your corpse
whispering rumor and
saying
tut tut
