because of the moon

because of the moon

the sky is blue tonight the stars

violet

 

bolts from a nailgun galaxy shot

into white eyes

dark heads

 

rat tat

 

they comb the

fascia strafe the minds

the damaged skin

 

of heaven's

 

toothbrush cowboys

punching the ivories

into remission

 

raise

 

your palms to the sky

[your mother]

the infrared

 

concerto
