Etiquette for the Comments Section
Steps for a Safe Disassembly
- This side up—pull your good feathers
from burlap sacks
of unanswered letters. - Crack a shell on a uniform +
build a new domestic
indoctrination. - Let the spoon rest on the lids
of the eyes at rest.
Do not boil over. - This side down—now a diatribe for
the tight wires
of misgivings by phone. - Via diction/via rule
/via road/via blood
/via spit/via love. - Smooth the sheets
of the incandescent
wet streets
of your bed w/ a trowel. - Cook your argument
for three-minutes behind
the epiglottis—until the eyes
are sufficiently crossed. - This side up—fold the arms
of all of your dress shirts
diagonally along the banks of
an empty river. - Tilt the head forty-five degress
until you run
parallel w/ the rain. - There are no sides—
just space—
Play the angel in waiting.
