night knot

            after Elfriede Jelinek

unimbued

the view

way

darker

mud in the eye….

inner light slept in

floats

and

weft me

slumber drags in

over….

on

loom fear wrecks

deserts

errored me

speak in ghost….

coasts

lamplit darken

grab trying

glide eager

summit

see ear

dew….
