two pairs of blunnies
boots sigh, dust-
rags erase thick scar-
work, interlacing
lore and evidence.
curve finds half-
light, finger smooths lamp-
black in tan furrows,
spine bowed from spasm.
knees splay, clock-
wise gears clink in wrist-
bone wound to bursting —
main spring ruptures forth.
mouth wide, come-
drunk, speechless, seeks moon-
stone around onyx,
finds its claw setting.
hands like heat-
lamps bear rust-red brick-
works, spreading mortar
along my insides.
