mango / atom
I have seen a child walking
after the swiping at a photo album
proved fruitless
[ mango lingering low-teeth-y ]
hops. skips. jumps. stops
to remove pebbles, wants the earth out
of her shoes, fingers
oily after jackfruit, oil in pickle
she in the jar
&
the shoes are stone, heavier
all of a sudden, dusts it off
with a rhythmic taptaptap
First gray hair last black one
[ shivering ]
feet dragging / plowing the earth
to recede in, to reseed in.
is it the want
or the
|
gravity &
tongues discovering islands of mango atoms
[ untasted / gravity ]
