Sarah St Vincent Welch #208 found woodstack (inspired by AC)




open paintbox
you are a smudged palette
found timber by the road
smeared and ripped
hot with turps and nails
splinters
lime
hung by rope and straps
you dangle
once floor, wall, desk, beam
once kite, boat, cot
once gallows, stocks

once tree
