Studio Blue, 202-1540 W 2nd Ave (in the Waterfall Building)

   


all ran to meet their chains thinking they secured their freedom

 

the ease-buckled gait—

i do not miss this

 

the incomprehensible mingling

of words in flight from their language

 

conversations overheard in the street

 

the routine pallour of abandonment— this

i do not miss.

 

 

 

my deprivation is a verb

 

a waking to the taste of a nail,

an admission that i am

always another body, not the one i have

fastened to a door—

                                  that pittance

                                  that thread  

 

                        i

have left

the tomorrow-famished

for this:

 

voice-weary,

now-attendant,

congregation of last moments.
