you need leverage in
situations like these sitting
across from her
watching lips move
like violence [never
the violence you see
only the violence
you read gestures
forming off the tongue
tipping out each syllable
an atom-bomb of semaphore
her lips move like an illusion
gifted by the dead
you are her dead
her wheat man
rising victim
to her sun’s pale
nigh fire.
