skin and white

and formulaic

fast

and descending, drum rolls, o drum rolls

the purest

of all sensations

intuit now

imagine

your fingers skiing this skin

scanning

half bumps of logic, light, of light, the calm text of you

I touched a silver birch in the street with the back of my hand and it was your skin last night

your outer organ loud with massages

purest

diapason

purest flute

deteriorating into

white noise, white
