spike face crow
come out of no
and right hand
sky go down
den den time
time swallow horse
time swallow hollowness
crow carry shell
water to pine
is ten then sixteen wing for torn
slicked out
flanks of river
cut sheet
bit the shell until the snow
oh deer
used to call it
dulcet impairment
dusk clasps
is new some
easy easy
carotid
exhalation
at least a lit
hang
little as a lantern’s child
spark it
on boy
by path by river
in his is he
first
fingers cloud
first in bone form
is ten fingering three
skips stone
he alone is
when stone hits
what water
comes to him is
blue hair
electrician’s wire
new king
blue skin
dove dead to legs
he walks the river
river’s wet leg
down in
down to where
the dead are
copper
firings
