Infraction

fingers pressing putty onto newspaper

peeling back a pancake 

of ink and dust

swinging legs and humming lips

her fingers pulling

something about a shooting

twisted into a pink candy cane

ringing out clots in bleeding words

the phylogeny of a sunday

etymology of an obituary

does something come from nothing 

or from something else?

i wonder if the silicone knows 

what it holds

can the rain understand that it’s sad?

nails pressed into polymer    

syrup stories 

sticky guilt

blurring nouns and whereabouts 

11am

somewhere between almost and never
