(part of a sequence of poems called ‘loop’)
leap
leap into
fleckless
porcelain
wings pierce
balloons
once radiant birds
born in clouds
that now at last
are last to
the Persepolis
of your thighs
that lonely chrome
diaspora
of minutes
through chords
that were your clothes
flecking mysteries
my concept album riffs
but limited to the speed of light
there’s a stranger
who reveals
a leaf
that falls like
you
