ReplyDeleteHandling a precious calendar
with only my normal frenzy
when shit the left index finger
is sliced you know the one
I use to switch stuff on & off
in the spaceship before reentry
then before assessing the damage
I manage to twist my ankle
and further damage the nerves
I'm shouting at Scuttles the Robot
to go fetch the skin spray then go
back to the lab for the micromovie
(How it throbs for the days on Earth
the Fool laughs under its breath)
under the lens unfolds the reason
the blood had a latch that was undone
and the tiny blade came through
with astonishing ferocity.
just gorgeous! It made me rush and write this off my cuff.
DeletePuts me in mind of this exasperated thing I wrote in 2013...

ReplyDeleteyou left for me
that's right squealed the toddler and right in my ear too
it was mine mine mine
sighing the mother cuts the blob in half
dreaming of another day
another moment
just before the cord
between them
severed
if it was
