Scribblings
Poetry microdose: Day Seventeen
what is a line in isolation? a single exit which
does not exist. she speaks in multiples of two.
he orders her to move, move, move. & wraps up
her gestures in butcher paper. the pink enhances
the movement of her fingers. what a display
his market stall will have on saturday.
-
what is a positive without a bond? a search wishing
to escape. take a bite, a little taste, he offers
her up to passersby. disappearing has nothing
to do with flying, it is simply the desire of flight.
what is a word without context? a force hoping
to locate the taste of meaning in scribblings.
