Mouth of sand at the cave split,
mirrored nucleus shining from two places
underwater, nectar of stars
dripping down the lamp walls
outstretched arms that invite burning,
the sucking sky vacuuming the deep crack
with many elongating snouts,
desktops covered with shavings
from the recent trees, pens sparking,
tassels of meat tapering off at the corners,
risen blocks of frost meeting vacant tongues,
humdingers of coal raining down
on our senseless heads and bedding.
