Muster all that all, in one
syllable increments, their borders
and jangle, and warble, too. Between
lines are ghosts of objects and
'she won't mind'. We'll slip down
into narratives of cause
and worth with just
a slight buzz to sustain.
Pipe in fragmented
relief, reminders and
tugs -- even the cliches offer
a shoulder. A mirror won't,
elastic won't, but your
gaze, you, the safety pin & fray.
