.           her **** sprinkled spine. her blackened fingertips from a day cleaning and smoking in the pre-spring heat. her knife atop the stump. memory is the root of mankind’s trouble. lullabies her mother used to sang, as the fish gasped and to the bone. wilderness, a strange enchanted girl. her bioluminescent tent. her blackened beans and tortilla-leaves and peelings of cheese. her knife to whittle a twig. her moments grow like gardens left alone to ghost-over. to sample the city wilderness & then slip further away into a rearview idea. new republic. paradise. she’s up that trail there.
