stare right past me
a body of air absentee
-my chords are harmonies plucked
— from negative space

droplets on the surface of your eyes
speaking zero:
-dark windows clapped with hungry flashes

not me
not my hands
-not this worktop
— knotty your elbows
No.

I see your lungs fluttering
in the chest of another
-percolating chirps
— from the nest of his hands

^beyond
^^ beyond me
^^^ -beyond the reach of my antiphony
^^^^— the treetops sing in harmony
^

Intimately Intricate

Poetry, fiction, essays. Anarchy and Zen. A cathartic romp through a data dance hall of neuroticism, dodgy syntax and ego wrangling. Enjoy?
