I am a feather
blown out to sea and
saturn's dark eye
whispers
land – ho
there is the mark,
a line of salt,
and there is a web,
pulled out from
my mouth
a word.
between breaths
a word.
never met a fish
so deep
like a fire
a thousand leagues
of murder.
like a fire
tell me
reeled in on a thread
i awake
in a body in a bed
I am a feather and
s/he-humanity captured me.
i am a feather
an empty filament
full of heat
between breaths
oh tell me
tell me.
a word
like a fire
a thousand leagues
of murder
tell me.
there is the mark
a line of salt
and there is a web
pulled out from
my mouth.
