what in the history of blood
has blood
discovered
mom is hanging laundry from the future
regret is still looking
for a god
I learn cocoon
and boyishly
cross my legs
the lightning
when you saw it
was it clean
pain a shadow’s bed-hopping rain puddle
idea
a boy
in a homesick
elevator
the sculptor’s son dreams of acne
a sister so light
so moved
by shadows…
mom a statue
good
with faces
lose them all, dogface
teeth were pills
god couldn’t
swallow
our lost
way
of thinking
forgave
different
films
give childhood
some time
let vengeance
travel
/ say it wrong
my name
while whale
watching
deader
than his animals
that could speak
to language?
alien
to me
were the ashtrays
failed boats
of teeth
for my angry
quiet
brother
