POISONED


the first mechanism to go
is the ability to regulate anxiety

caught in the midst
of such a rich kick
a transparency deficiency
I marinated in myself
a minute longer than usual
I tripped on all my shed pieces
circling back not to retrieve them
just to see them again or something
like old friends

daydreamed from bed
of a river delta
every source this side of the mountains
meeting the sea in one place
that’s what I need

the words I was saying
became a slow dull trickle
my mind a whirl
no mouth could funnel

somewhere there are things that happen
so regularly we cease to doubt them
