PARKING LOTS OF HELL

 

 

Honesty’s heavenly-

handed, not birds

 

singing in her skirts

he’s certain

 

                      Query

surely won't harden

over that boy who

sets fire in his lips

 

 

Each marked, each

a muted shoreline…

 

 

Pick a word like one

or ten: one is a beach

 

ten the identical beach
