doubled & folded a two way mirror
see the blush on a pale bottom,
it is as white as me
read a book on “how to be a ghost”
working as crows fornicate,
black, love made with dead bodies
i floated over the lot of them
and i was so afraid, i did not know
what was seen on the other side
car lights, a saint to pick up roadkill
do not forget that ghosts watch
the birds echo, they might
verses were rehearsed & daresay
written on a couple dimes
we both have wings
while we both have wings,
i cannot fly –
oh, crows not the white of doves
i am dead & they eat my color, alive
fern to shield beads and eyes
***** pricking red bowels inside
should not know for literature
god’s couple of miles higher than
what the good book claimed
and he watches us from a mirror
the other side of a stage
we look so ugly, the crows eat my face.
