A Gullet's Lump
Updated: Oct 2, 2024

Letters serve me disrelish
It’s the signing that stings
My mind is exacting
Fingers are pipes
For sincerity that dissipates
Like smoke in a well
Conscience sticks the tar.
Clanging destitute drawbridge chains
I am an escarpment
Stoic to boats that dare knock
Spread as plain awaiting the sickle
A winged anopheles
Set teeth tight and touching.
