the limits of whispers

we are we are we are we are we are the evaporants the
diacritical marks with no alphabet to float away from
music we are we are we are we are here
in the crowline the simplest
note!
ation

a supplicant
gasps
follows, wails, drags the pads of her fingers
on the rear window of the hearse carrying
her loved one

lying on his back in the dew

we are we are we are we are we are certainly
articulated, to hear
the limits of whispers

and the feeling of an old piano
pressed in our ears

a ceremony of scenic
purism
a jingle
of necessary conservatism

infinite etudes
betray starlight

in all its tinkling

oh!

three planets tonight
wow
a triangle!
