Sense

3.
Body cracks harking back, forth
Scent somber mouillé and wet
dwelling to morph
Gravel crumbled sea won’t set

2.
Mind thrusts thunder echo
Bubbled white fountain falls
Sails, soars, rotund oars, low
Rolling under breathed wind, grey crawls

1.
Heart crust feathered in dust
Egg nest in twain
Tussled, twining
Ruffled fur furls warm

Grinding flesh twig break metallic

Music. Sound. Steel wool grated shade-shadow.

SNAP

The trees blur. The globe explodes.

FLASH. FLASH.

The boy's face disjoins.

His eyes slip along a grainy red horizon.

Filling the darkness and rising back

Skin is . stretched there, between (eye) ----- (the lens)

As the camera pricks the pixels

My eyes smooth their rough edges

Some faint heaviness settles

Teeth aching, tasting object

Abject

OPppp eration

The image

Is re-membering me.

Every grain-saturated -punch

forcing my eyes into their opaque

Hibernation end

Flies littered over the roof

Waking from winter

Across the new light

Covering over the cold

Speckled stones from

Catacomb sleep

Deep in dusk and dawn

The sun splinters black

Green springing

To the subtle touch

Of warmed dry

Air passing up

Flies in a whirl-wind

Unstuck

Weightless disaster

Only to fall again

Up and around as fleck-ed

Flesh

That glows red

In lumen

Hidden to the dark
