everything has ankles too

everything has ankles too  (  a  p o e m  )




algebra & cataracts

mizzle in the mist

phantom hands & candle wax

fingers of the fist


resonate & weather vanes

digits in the mud

scatter rain & splatter brains

bridges of the flood


puddle crumbs & allen screws

rubble in the heap

tungsten tongues & avenues

shuffles of the sheep


rubber bands & dictionaries

citrus in the curd

ampersands & apple trees

cymbals of the birds

...
