you say at least

now we have

survivor chickens

•

•

•

pray carefully

out loud the record

is listening

•

•

•

you return from

the borders of

the undiscovered country

•

•

•

the trash

of your death

litters the house

•

•

•

your cat

hit by the truck

will be there too

•

•

•

your icy

forehead sticks

to my lip

•

•

•

you get more

condolence cards

than I

•

•

•

white carnation

petals thin slivers

on the floor

•

•

•

even in

atoms no

silver lining

•

•

•

later

some blood

in a box

•
