from Cuts from a Nerve Diary

 

 

XXI – 8:41

 

 

each day is a culture

foreign, new

 

plunge pool

 

is attempts at consolation

recasting the flower catalogue

 

I’m ringed by acousmatics

filtered through

strangers

a fragmented garland I wear

of cut leaves

shorn locks

 

each day is questions

 

is it broken

does it work

what can you tell me

 

how much darkness light allows

a 235 yard tunnel
