(---)
a palm reader
with mouths
to feed
does
my mother’s
nails. I overhear
I love
babies
but god
they live
so long.
-
my brothers will tell you
I avoid
capitalization
eating
in front of others
threesomes
-
who was it
asked
-
from whose memory were you erased?

[warm body]
her nightmare
from the era
of hibernation
revolves around
a baseball
made
by her husband
from the cobwebs
found
soaking
in the mouths
of babes
(mouths)
dry
from dreaming
of the sponge
bathed
by god
in the egg
of a spotless
crow
~
[fathers]
to see a stone
as ruin’s
pursuit
of aftermath
one must share
this dream
of arriving
on earth
to pray

holy asthma
holy
crossbones

old hat
this human
head.

are deaf

the floor is writing on the earth
it is better
than having
roaches
childbirth
comes to
in a bat
dying
in a pillowcase
for what
the weeping
flightplan
of a drunk
stork…
what tree cannot reach
mother scratches
with a broom
~
[cries]
we are
each one of us
the smallest
person
on earth
one is never too old
for god, never
too old
to surveil
the deaf
/ I know from your palm
what your hand
will drop, mother
cooks only
meat, father
is every
nightmare
she has
of her exodus
from apologue
/ having populated
the myth
of ******
the baby is empty
