Razor-Sharp Diamond Whispers

“I mean you no harm.”

The visitor says as his glasses reflect black

Skin torn snake sin

Razor-sharp diamond whisper

-s (an apple falls through the branches)

of the tree they write

a world on fire 

bathed in iris pain

Black

Hole

( remember the war—is in stone—the net fishes men—write him back—in the pulsing word of life)…

					I can see it…
 
& this thing sent off course the night
& a return to a bathed civilization

					In light…

A new-born calf staggers to the ground.
