ITS BAD LUCK TO **** A LADY BUG
-----
A Zippo lighter with a smoker's cough
propositioned to the Ladybug
one carton of American Spirits from Montreal.
the first time I saw a warning label scuttle.
"PERTE DE LA VUE"
you can always trust matches to light the neglected beetle,
clinging his chest.
we stumble, to entangle.
White birch wood weaving baskets from branches
caskets from canvas
red/black marble sloppy, from rose goggles.
I blot Rorschach ink from
my eyes, a blind linguist, lost
in messenger inboxes.
"Malakh"
"Maraszatal"
blind luck
killing Lady Bugs.
