#1609 - sewn up

 



1609

6.147

27.v.24

sewn up

ekphrastic for Mehwish Iqbal’s ‘Vassal’

 

these are my dismemberments

here are hearts, the red fly

lambs’ legs fruit fall

 

flock of the unknown

thread loose point through

growths

 

you could go in and count

 

the white of whiskers

chains, hair of head

roots

the reach of limbs

 

there is always another world

 

breath caught parting

 

time is in the animal

time sticks out as well

 

there’s all this runaround

they could be little legs

a forest

 

instructions are yet to read

 

nothing is what it is
