disappearing blood
August 30, 2014
To disappear is to
1. Cease to be visible;
to cease to exist or be in use.
To depart from
oneself leaving remains of
the body in a pile of ashes
spread across the Atlantic.
Recordings of words
repeating and
repeating and repeating,
this echo of smoke sparkles
like a newborn starlight
stolen from the deep coal sky.
Numbers are standards left
heavily on my caving shoulders,
struck my angry fists.
To reappear is to
1. Come into sight or view;
to appear again,
to come back and
return to the lost.
