During November 2011 (1. Burning a Poem)





Burning a poem

in love with you

forsooth as

letters fragment a page

to breathe an eye

for an eye

a tooth for a tooth



Sans doute! Yo soy

letters in flight

the flame of tongues

the crackle of spit

the lunge of meaning

perceived by

a sheath of being



This flesh of doing

by shards of letter fall

a glassy perusal

the body in motion;

the enigma of a

sideways glance

one is reminded of an Eastern

dance



for the vines throughout your corps



Tongue by tongue

our lives are handed down
