Literature Text

there lives a man in a desert
with cracked skull and lips.

he is broken and feeble hands;
his back where the deer-antlers
roam to graze.

with the winter winds he is

calm. the sea foam swelling around
his ankles feel like honey, and he is
dragged. dragged through the sand,
dragged until he is salt. salt in a

swollen geography.

the clouds give way to bitter ships.

ooh, i am miffed.

/edit two.twentyfour.oh'eleven.

it's a daily deviation!
