May 2019
Leaning on the ceiling panel
Of my walled-up life
I pause to consider
Do birds rest on fox carcasses,
Or nest upon the ground?
Because that is where they left me
Buried
Six feet
Not so soon
My spectre carries bones and thread
To hum these patterns together
Not so high
Where is my nest?
No place to hide
Nowhere to rest
