after an earlier tsunami

one that was her children


new visions persist
ions mined in solitude
children dream of light

where is the mother
her fragmentary patterns
each passenger searched

murky water burns
strange fish guide the new clippers
gnaw silica growths

tight-skinned space crawlers
mouth exudates heal lesions
on the pitted hull

I swim endless blood
yearn to love your skin your lips
eat urban toxins


End


Star*Line, 2006
