Jan. 28 - Jan. 30

Jan. 28 am

Buckled stone names bones.
This ground is older than war.
River slips.
Attends.


Jan. 28 pm

Polish your line--when
choked, I laughed rubies. I hold
broke teeth in my mouth.


Jan. 29 am

Listen, wait, take shape.
Luna moth stirs on your tongue.
Soon you speak your wings.


Jan. 29 pm

Rock-caught starfish holds
your gaze, flexes in brine. To
know only this--what bliss.


Jan. 30 am

I dreamed of such thirst,
a white horse at the well. No
water could quench it.


Jan. 30 pm

From his deep chair I'm
unspooled. "You're a tearful bird,"
origami thinned.
