The Insurgent
No one saw him climb over the Hesco* barriers, so he just appeared and walked under the lights where no one ever goes. An actor who moves in my sleep, he talked to the air, his hands tucked under his arms. A boy who might have been cold or wired.…
The Following Shadow
The sky like a cake dish curves, has dimension, contains us in an element like water. Everywhere invisible currents cut through and feelings prepare to give way to others. Birds practice ascending declensions of birdsong: Amo; Amas; Amat. Random clouds dream and pass over. They leave following shadows like a…
The Vultures of Mumbai
A dead body must be eaten, the Parsi tribe believes. To burn or bury a body will taint the earth, the Parsi tribe believes. In Mumbai, the Parsi tribe sets their dead atop the Towers of Silence on Malabar Hill for the vultures of Mumbai to eat. In Mumbai, the…
Sonnet for the Driveways of Our Childish Years
All the tennis balls that our Gretzky curves couldn't guide past the taut rubber screen of a shooter-tutor cratered garage doors. Personal moons for the parties we missed, where some young men made the porch-like climb to violence. For instance: I knew a kid who got pushed to bite the…
Estate Sale
It was late November when she died and frost covered the ground. It had taken the undertaker longer to break the earth in order to accommodate her casket. The entire world was frozen solid. The mourners would have brushed against each other to block the cold had there been more…
Aletha
Scythe on shoulder, Time comes to cut the meadow, heavy pipe in mouth, smoking Five Brothers tobacco. Popping daisies, laying clover in swaths, he will not be done until he mows the timothy too. How you stood in yellow dress in the swale of spring beeches, what kind of flower…
Seeing Through Glass
My father wears contact lenses—not the soft kind, but glass. And I have watched him lose one or the other, and find them again, so many times that I completely trust that he could find me, if ever I fell into a shag rug the same color as my skin,…
A Short Bibliography of Secrets
The things no one talks about could fill up libraries. I imagine wooden shelves bowing under the weight of untold secrets. Card catalogues overflowing with tantalizing tales of the unsaid. Archival footage emerging into light like the faded purpled ink of old mimeographed pamphlets. Hidden wives and lovers, secreted passions…
Belonging
When pomegranate seeds spill from your shallow ivory pockets onto the rubber playground where this city expands in your palm; or before the hour when you run through the orange light as it bends like a whale, the wind goes wherever you go, your dress full of dirt, and never…
Celestial Bodies
i When you put Saturn in the bath it floats. It's true. ii A teaspoon full of neutron stars weighs more than all the world's people curled up together. Under the sheets we glow in the dark but the light we emit is 1,000 times dimmer than we can see…
My Brother In Law Leaves the World
He held the lexicon on his lap, and in late afternoon tracked meanings across deserts, mountains, histories of talk that crossed from East to West. He tuned their sound and sense, traced each line back to what he thought were ur-verbs, bend, turn, cut, all life carpentry. We asked, What…
Shorn
The Pentecostal woman next door confides: the Lord forbids a blade touch her hair. It rats and scrapes her knees, unbeautiful, decades old. She weeps in the mornings, rakes and breaks comb teeth through it. Her neck is off. She whispers, “The nice gay man downtown says he will take…
Water
The dead are learning to float. Even the ones who never dared wade ankle-deep. They are surprised at the water's welcome. They are drinking the water, too, for the first time in days. They drink as if they have crossed a desert before thirst invented mirages. Some have forgotten their…
From the Mouth of Kitsee’s Inlet
I. Arrow Point Look: we have buried bodies here. Monuments for relatives and former pets, or soon ourselves. We create evidence of our own making: memorabilia from old tools, language in loose soil. Plants and people wilt in shade, planetary systems tilt in predetermined phases. Diminishing bee collectives scatter claustrophobic…
