Predawn and black dawn and overlap
the river of tar
for a symphony of skater's lights
rails of liquid corn
stapling impaled walls to impaled walls
peeling the lids of the inarticulate
binding curved wood to a drop of the ocean
dew on the arc of what can be seen
the hay of ghosts and stem needles
elbows of a crest's ridge
steaks on a web of steel
a fiber optic ribbon's text
oiled curlicues in living ash
foam rubber that sleeps in the sun.
