Bones 5 Bones 8 Bones 20

a part across from a godwit’s carbon footprint

a word
after a word
at war
afterwards

Dog breath in its drawing back is God

Awakened to a patient etherized upon a table

Rerum Novarum the progress of light across a modern slum

Knowing naught the soft suppuration of naysayers

Nevermore a raven fills the mouths of the poor

Extinct light-bringers compose a nocturne

Solstice night what does it profit amid the stars?

Soliloquy of the drip by drip withdrawal of sight

War and Peace

the other he has a lean and hungry look	brutal how we come to bury the knives
i think therefore it is light at last	a slice each of crunchy cucumber on her eyes
alone alas alack at all a declension of nouns	coolness: the wrinkling skin of vision
postfixes the lingering taste of a death	the writing in the tissue fold long forgotten

A spontaneous sequence with Shrikaanth Krishnamurthy

Worm casts of presence and absence as a single state

In flux a showing forth of becoming

Sound of water signposted at a crossroads

Direct to its origins footnotes to the silence

On a blank slate the breath of God

Mirrored on the surface a missing word
