Dreaming the sea.

        "Zersetzung"

the cold leaving · its trace in the mind
trace across years · from having been cold
    the sprig sprinted
    from its prose perch
    for long living
the framework heaving · what hacks within
ornaments wobble · in weird unison
    —cat attacks
    a Xmas tree—
    days, my mind
the cold of years · yawp barbaric
to my soft bones · in the last dregs
    didn't want done
    & trust tried
    head twisted off
words fall · like the falcons they are

Walk away Reneé.

'What is will power?' asked Toad."
