:
thick hailstones in April I keep swallowing my tail
:
all these lights they’re humming uncomfortable in every position
:
no continuous skyline the relentless efficacy of breasts
:
behind the buildings the lake obscured by fog downstairs they’re fighting
:
balled up in the shower her wet dress the soughing darkness
:
wood smoke in the warm afternoon the deaf woman talks to herself
:
she whispers in another language the intermittent rumble of the elevator
:
a blue door tied down to the top of a car the smell of cut grass
:
not much to say there’s a helicopter
:
The Martian Chronicles read over the phone unsteady hand-jobs
:
too windy for a hat sheets of newspaper slap the chain-link fence
:
dream hungry the call of a crow on the telephone pole
:
saxophone practice upstairs the machine fills with water
:
in the brief blue flash of the train’s light on the tunnel wall abhor
:
slowing down you can smell yourself
