REVANCHERIE
Oct 22, 2024
i’m for the bad old because i know
i but not you
not they
not It
know the rage fog of less-than
the fall-down inchoate
the 1+1+1=
1 world where
math bows to fences
town line = land’s end & god
fills a clapboard box
beyond
the voodoo banshee blank & i flee to
the lockstep’s bear hug
the shelter of fascist football chants
three words one face no
other & then
the forever of mamaw’s lullaby: goodnight
moon stars all
elegy for the only possible
pour the gasoline, i’ve got the match
because i know
fear
but not next
