Ink

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Ink clings yellow and red
to the fingertips of the believer
who, quivering, dreams
of roots, lobes, and pods;
cans of diced peaches,
unwashed feet, the chaconne.
With an accading of eyes
she spits rusty corsettes
and silver accretions.
She can point and weave all day this way.
