when folks figure
you are their slave
your past belongs to them.

i’m the one executing the half-bent
dip in the slow slowdrag
with the smug little smile
& the really cool shades.

Nothing waters the bole,
the stone wastes nothing.
Speech could not cobble the swamp,
And so you dance for a brighter silence.

The sun continues to brush
orange light intermittently
everywhere despite the intimate
annihilations, this weeping sea.
