Five times five

some inseperable dance follows registration hallway down down down

placing tips of fingers where soft lines converge

holding open each rite of passage to trickle through plains of cotton

welding love to sleep, a congregation turning towards impressionalbe voltage

in common with emollient virtue, bouncing so small, almost imperceptible

helping up, brace the foot against the wall

keep the heater on, you understand

snow is creating elaborate patterns by filling plank and cornice to wither

apples to apples

sublte twist and possible invitation

my position suggests the firmament will open

clasping like a toy and testing for doneness

rest is allowed to sweep forward in her gossamer skirt

along the ridge of shoulder, dimpled downy belly

masks fall away as dream shudders lay waste to

that stabbing five times five
