Sarah RIce #9 'Nine Ears (Relapsing Polychondritis)'

My canary in a coal-

                        mine own ear-

                                    to-the-ground-

                                                            down

Foetus, scrunched up fist – making a fist

                                                            of it ham-

fisted, rump, slab, grub

My warning-

                       note, my flag-ship

                                                bearing-

                                                            up

You bloat

            like heart

                        stomach  

                                    like anger

                                                corpse
