Plowed into a corner
eyes breaking out in snow
buttons blinking in the capsule
that guides a clump of flesh home.

Feather strewn river banks radiating
rock smashed berries and broken ferns
craft in the seam of a leaf
seen through the fading breach
of armless thieves in floating isolation
breeding armchairs out of baked clay
a prism's leash of smoke
neck's goblet of singing throat
and laser guided twilight
for the groaning oar.
