Favorite Quote:
"I will show you fear in a handful of dust."


swill away the numb,
a holy communion taken
before sunday.
blue bottle babies
with shoes, never broken in,
littered instead with convex metal,
that clicks when it's dropped,
like your ring in the communion basin.
but you forget:
stone girls cannot corrode,
easily.
