chasms
raze in tangled seaweed water
i conjure filth above men.

i say, "this is all i've got."
she says, "more poetry, please."

each year our family grows.

we do this thing
where we build a poem.
it's full of 4:00 a.m.
chasms and available to
all who need to touch it.

i don't know if it's
the rhythm, but something's
got her feeling kind of volatile.

when she turns her head,
there's a stranger on the sofa.

she's singing empty
garbage bags to my son.

i don't know who i am anymore.
