new leaves

that limb escaper
is a semi-sorted buzz
is a voice so much not yours that it has to be yours
is every reason flattened for soak and coruscation
frond conversion
biochemical language on white sheets
on stereo low
words placed beneath a pillow for later
remembrance of breath
taken in and taken in and taken in

the other product, sugar
a forgotten use in every cell
sweet primary landslides
missed voicemails
evidence comes from the east
from where we wake sleep
non-eaters
slow smokers
chloroplasts and callow greens
additive primaries blush a red
feather slip a smile
a bed is many places once
is a drive around your head
walking instructions
a need of nothing or nothing of need
this is not that clarion
this is the work of burgeoning departures
the dropped watching of your hands
having seen them
they are sure to work this way
