Crackling clavicle.


wanting. beggars attention.
a spare kiss please;
those minutes have been missed.
count down in liquid measures
lay your livers down to rest.

I can play at waiting
dressed up in numbered outfits
adding up to equal negative--
not me. xerox attack.

then you came with your unwanted bus
drop
clavicle smash up with a bus stop
broken bones are nothing when you’re drunk.

roast dinner. sunday pig blister-bubble crackled on monday.
underwear: funday best.
forget me nots not enough, but bed knots and wound sticks-
around for the light to fade and the penny to
drop.
