a ready cleaver,
left at the ready
singing the margin
of a sunbath
Live again
pretty kid
hiding in a tree
in the middle of the street
Live again, sun bath,
metrically cut
to the standards of the Book,
writing,
“step on my neck”,
craning at the clash
of red-blooded clans,
singeing the margin,
hiding in the margin,
cleaving the sun
Live again, kid
