My sleeps are unrested,
and ribs creak
with weariness,
my uterus shrivels -
a pink husk as dry as humour
rolling around
like a tumbleweed somewhere
between my spleen
and spine.
I give you stone infants with alabaster skin,
and eyes like milky marbles;
their brass tongues click with hunger
their clockwork hearts whirr with life
and we sink
from the weight of exhaustion.

escape velocity
yesterday’s toys are tomorrow’s tautologies
rendered in the truculent
lard of today’s revolution
and after each war the gestalt
spoils will always go
to the most karmically endowed

Three Views of Death
1.
she is sitting on the stairs
she holds her knees
close
to the center
of her body
her mother is by the couch
her eyes full
like a glass
of untouched water
there are voices
in the kitchen
-speaking soft
she doesn't know them
the yellow light
of the living room
moves with
distant shadows
she breathes
she doesn't think
about her brother
she doesn't
think
2.
church windows
hidden sun
shedding light
i remember
the carpet moving
green shadow
flat beneath the weight
of my feet
his face is
sudden
pale and
too soft
one hand
folded white
over the other
i feel a silence
waiting
teeth folded
in the heavy dark
swollen like a river

faded smiles and lost hopes
she's never alone but
you cannot taste loneliness.
and (she dissolves)
she'll smile sadly when you name her atlas,
because you forgot she carries suffering not hope.
(you forgot everything she had to give up,
you forgot to shoulder some of the weight,
youforgot,youforgot,youforgot,youforgot).
[repeat it, repeat it, repeat it and
listen to her bones crack.]
you cannot claim something you never had;
she held everyone but
no one
held
her.
[she's slipping through your fingers.]
take her gently by the wrist,
but it is too late.
(she shatters at the lightest touch).
