this little language lobster in your
trap

charcoal hisses at you beneath the
ribeye listen

the blackbird explains it in the
hedge

your fingernail on the mirror watches
we need more footnotes and fewer
wheels

O light no different from the night
before
before
as plain as the beginning of all
things
things

meet
meet
discard your enemies like old clothes

to be one with you without myself
there will always be oligarchs be one

or leave it alone
there is a broken branch a bird can
sing on still.
sing on still.
