Chromatic Leavings, from the 'PTSD notebooks'



Chromatic Leavings







This place's no palace.  A law of snakesong spun

Wild shade bringing scent to assuming/ nothing

As ancient as an arm pushed to the bathroom wall

The locks turned loose in rapid sky.  Gladly, I

Mete in stays, hang in, and raise your salts until

Its early flowers.  Where your hair lights horns

The exact shade of sand leaves.  On a limb and

When the moon is a matching sepia stern.  You

Press and press heavy prints in the morning panic

Room, wait up all music.  Such hours colour hurt

As you are as sandstone as whet.  There has

To be calm during, calm after, the whole misspen

-Ding so semblances segregate true cost from

All richness the moon has tuned to our room
