the mind voices

an intersecting ether of passage--

where vocal cords fluxed.

to conceal or reveal.

the variational

cut of the throat's stem manifolds

the flower.

mouths and manifolds the flower,

as the heart falls like a hatchling from

a nest.

its blue eyelids pinned shut, its wings

stuck to its sides.

to the heart of the intersection--mindless,

voiceless.
