Owner of proper nouns
this body prefers the high horse
barefoot in a barrage of images
No stocking feet
no voice better than
a kiss against itself
Against the unity of representations
could this really be poetry’s plan
how to abolish itself
How to take that categorical imperative &
shove the value form
how to spit out the old master
Preoccupied before each bodily fault
drinking in each caress
Raised buttons
where muscles park
How to pronounce
the marbleized swarm
Tracing gravestones
dead letters
astonished to be alive
Here to celebrate the broken hammer
lost in a cathedral of trees
carnivores in pursuit of a body to be divided
The bird beside me
as white collar primitives
picked me clean
