(for Ingvil Stille)


The Dales of Doris

From the bend
out to the ten
the light strikes;
blue, corrosive,
clenches the hand and burns;
offers ecstatic pain & cortisone’s frailness;
an equivalence of steel-song,
anger’s hollow
in a searing “all at once”;
the shame-pittings of the mainlands endured
beyond the reach of the “public world”;
consciousness shipwrecked
in a sea of pale telephones & ear-shells;
blind feelings diluted
in the consumptions of the thing-sties,
leaching their poisons
through the Dales of Doris
