Threatens to meet
Utters words known.
Tyrant.
City erodes. In time
carves out words on flesh
in shorthand,
pregnant paw.
Hunts alone.
and how the wish goes
noons and afternoons.
the jackal - notochord,
has only a heart.
Names the light.
Your river, your wars,
propped up against walls
then white, throat, then slits
of different languages
- Here's my dead body
Look at it.
