all
my hands, itch
in
the thinning veils, our regales are prevalent tangles of selfless and selfish
impulses, roaming amid drawn falling star dissolve, life outdoors, here in the southern edges of the northern mixed deciduous and coniferous forest, highways, houses and hearths intersperse beacons, in the streets, where well water might be, potted as tea, warm and safe, battened down, behind windows, regarding each look with ease, the wind and cold, lingering near memory, when the smells of these tropical systems with female names, come crawling through all the dead
things, we celebrate, manifesting late October, so full of life, we stir our electrical impulses, we accordion fold holographic universes, we play the exhales to know every sonata, the griots and the mariachi might have known, between the dreams we see and...
the
cupped tea
the
witch hazel
the
gnarl bark
the
elder berries
the
tree seasons
the
tested turns
the
clocks of tiny knives
the
burning endless lines
each hand
each reach
knows
waits
wants
wishes
presses together
our
inter-lockings
our
crossings
our
fingerings
our
drawings
our
mathematical madness
only
superstition and
surviving
can
go about
reviving
street
level devils
and
any
who may care
who may care
of rhythms
to be
in order
in order
to
be
social
this always
makes us
social
this always
makes us
take
a drink or
rabbit
hole dive
into
animal desire
each
invisible bite
each
slight
pinching
fold
at
the gather
is
another
mystery
of why
we smile
even when
things are bad
we smile
even when
things are bad
we
speak volumes
to
each other
before
a word is said
as
silence is
never
really quiet
as
much as tuned in
just
like music playing
when
you’re alone
any
fantasy
is
dancing
a
patter beat
of
rain
coming
in
like
saints
gone
marching
gone
crawling
like
we already
knew to do
when we came
wandering, too
our eyes full
of
hope and renew
in
endless lines
each
endless
hand
waiting
wanting
wishing
for
a bite
