Anybody anymore.”

Metastasizes into
Swelling absence.

Poetry must
Be an
Uncertain map.

Find peace.”

The geography
Of this
Isn’t cathartic.

Forget to
Call me?”

Aren’t wrong.

That was
Never fleshed.

In front
Of you?”

You have?”

Multiplied within.

But maybe
Too many.

Our menus.

A hole.”

All knowledge
Is partial,
But still…

The pornography
Of being
And having.

Down now.”

Vague notions
Of who
We are.

Through sentences.

Of feelings
Is closed.”

Gravel in
Your voice.

“The road
Is long
And unspoken.”

Isn’t in
The solution.”

Dark rooms
Before pictures.

Our outlines
As trajectories.

“Do ghosts
Go away
Or stay?”

“The world
Doesn’t exist.”

You and
I fold
Into others.

Something is
Always missed.

“I don’t
Know what
I know.”

“Is nudity
Ever gratuitous?”

Does one
See what
One shows?

“Don’t look
At me
Like that.”

The antinomies
Of mirrors.
