else’s mouth

else’s mouth gasping damp murmurs

suppose injuries hesitate in luminous dissolve

arm enjoys weather

dividing bones, a container
rhododendron phrases


**

else’s mouth waiting for rhododendron phrases
conversation about comforting begonias

arm raising easily

suppose injuries hesitate in luminous dissolve

including lilac

ambiguous wound preserve in abundant thistle

suppose her clothes suggest criminal injuries
