The Camel Threads
No off position
on the genius switch
No light
to then burn out
No cracks to form
on Leonardo’s bronze
No Frazier Ali
rout
The expectations
stretch beyond
What humanity
can span
The eye of the needle,
the camel threads
What always could
—still can
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2020)
