The rib of man dangling on a line
too much tumult to wedge
neatly into a moment

dawn with vapors of clay
and copper wires
singing on the fallen flesh
of a last party
paper mouths across glass tables
calling in their mutilated array

one companion
shrunken to a chair
his lion's head on woolen sticks
that move the illustrating chimneys.
