raze
hands
without
a
face
to
frame
them
pilot
an
earthbound
plane
.
the
moon
is
tattooed
with
a
sideways
smile
.
inside
this
battered
box
bound
by
scotch
tape
,
she's
written
my
name
.
a
worm
begs
for
help
.
three
anthropomorphic
teeth
stand
smirking
from
a
sapphire
sticker
.
two
hold
a
tube
of
toothpaste
above
their
heads.
the
third
clutches
a
red
brush
with
white
bristles.
there
are
twenty
-six permanent markers
below
deck
.
some
of
these
still
write
.
buried
beneath
them
is
the
scuffed
shroud
of
some
spectral
pen
,
lost
like
every
memory
embedded
in
a
brittle
basin
i
once
called
mine
.
