I Only Have Eyes for You, mixed media, 2021

the sky is a thread  the evening, birdless finds my fingertips convinces me  of angels, dustbins  the catastrophe of walls this sober, creatureless moon revolving in a field emptying the night  of sphinxes, terrors  my body, moonlit loose as a canon no longer than  a millimeter of salt the length of an experiment in living, loving and violent as clockwork  despite the distance, or  because of the distance  this mouth is no longer possible the landscape vanishes without closing its eyes  reassures me  i'm collapsing quietly  towards destiny
