rise
& fall
of species
read carefully
hands over fist
primordial
& proud
seethe
oracles eloquent
testament
or truth
goes
over head
held
on
to body
tight
rarely look
backwards
give gift
naturally as narcissus
near pool
stand
waiting for water
heart
refusing to function
hands conceal
all else behind
conception clear
takes all
night
to explain
on
prescription
chase
chase dragon
elaborate under
interrogation
break down
wisdom wounds
itself
not above
but always below
share shelter
smell
blood
& bones
fight for night
straight
from body
close eyes
& read
between lines
& grids grow
in valley
you were born
go down
by river
wait on bridge
ground
zero closer
than you think
