the responsibility of language you google how to preserve sweet potato 

 ways of displaying rocks under a blanket

 the tobacco edge of immaculate births

 after bee teeth John Lithgow grows bleach

 sapphire the land rejects you 

 mood ring are you sure the back of your head exists?

 and then he puts a dress on and makes a cabbage

 startling how it bounces on a rhyme Adam's apple

 if white ridges in my nail it must be Friday

 Kronos had I known who breastfed me

 Venus rising yesterday behind your ear

 an example of cladding a draft wind trapped between flapping tongues

 in a puddle the moon's humbling footfall a poem once

 darkness...with how many fingers and how big a hand does it creep?

 verbs dyed indigo farther (and) farther into loss

 past perfect sparks draped in blues a virgin stunned

 kings fry whelks there winter sky

 under a variant of interest Oswald in Mexico

 the thoughts of milk a clay bridge

 instagram reel a parrot shitting dust

 earth’s second moon the smell of clothes drying

 carrying the flag of Maryland a dragonfly

 after the pistol waves

 friendships with the dead we animate a cactus

 the wheat field didn’t notice you chopping logs

 rabbits, on the other hand I, taller than a whiskey bottle

 a stenographic ape now alone

 frozen wetland our misery being a greek letter

 wheat field in reverse all the ways we suffer

 a small Madonna in the engine room
