from 'all stepped/ undone' (2013)/ Incunabula Media 2026

 

2013

till final- 

scattered 

burnt to touch 

      in the closed night’s turning 

all’s to the redeem 

                of it 

collected 

through the shadow of less 

and less 

             the heart’s discarded 

settlement 

dead as 

                 light 

mockery all 

the breath stitched shut till final 

neck-snap

-

clasp- 

of the lost clasp 

gripped by final 

heart 

                               

     regalia of death/ asked of/ wishful 

spent winds 

             collapsed in naught 

                     in the draught 

of it 

scald of 

 

      of the lost clasp

-

in-dream- 

in damage season 

silt of the 

           

           fallen eye of 

subtle less than breath 

asking 

concave or 

         convex as 

dreaming the lie 

 

of the stark pageant 

the pulse 

out 

struck out 

in-dream of cleft 

      sun light
