Transmission Line Blues.

"pillow yarrow"

1.
a threnody that no one can
today · carcass lurking
liminal thrip whiplash

threnody where no one's trying
a sucker bet bookends
birth & death in weather

threnody when no one wins
Pascal's wager widgets
wind from a based spaceship

threnody the warren roams

2.
heart that is a crying wound
street soon to be closed
how long has this lull fizzed
& edge been honed
apricot morning saraband

red bricks laid in counterfeit
slant rays where the humpbacks glide
griefs would fain be rid
still runes indite
& on their shadows the great stars dote

this school zone cruised by cops
i anyway traverse
a wheel collecting moss
most svelte of perps
& connoisseur of non-eclipse

Miracle.

"The wind that knocked our generation down
Was not a harvest."

--Djuna Barnes, The Antiphon

HARDWARE STUDY.
