My gut Rickety
An aching reverence on my shoulder holds my spine by the neck,
As i groan in secret, at length
My gut rickety, like a chalk with a gap at the end
Beckoning winter heat from the west
When I step outside, the door falls
i am unsure about the door
is it a door or a million moth?
the day holds nothing, after all.
only a translucent touch,
hints of yellow, or i forgot
sprint so fast, halt
face-down on the strickets they lie
touch them with an arm
because they love them,
as do i,
and i really do
the ground of the desert,
the wailing peasant.
