I am trying to say none

I am trying to say
none of your names
( at least not aloud )
but I caught myself shaving
blurting out a couple of them.

Better I had cut myself shaving,
bad.
Better 'twere blood running down
my neck and my
white shirt, o'er my
naked crotch and
pooling on this
stranger's floor,
than any of your names escaping
my lips.
