songs for keeping the watch: night 04

animal. argonautika. inauspicious. i cry love love love unbinding
the straight stitch i would lace myself knotting coptic around you. the

cliffs of england stand. fresh words for you, fresh voice i would have.
tape loops, degrades, a palimpsest of white noise cold but no!

much play may be accomplished while one idles. i have learned at least
to seek small perfect things alone, brief idylls, & to hold them alive.

my fierce respirator. the blood i have from you the starter, sourdough /
rocket. i cadence you everywhere--that laugh--splitting hairs to fire

our syntax collider, intravenous and sure, our fleet feet dancing no matter
the latitude & nevermind the time. i send packets held over always for you,

the cloud gleam, a car horn, my whistle for the dark. a twine of atoms.
