listen carefully for the haunt the boneshatter
listen as it shuffles across threshold
a blue & gluttonous rat
2. Ain’t NO man ya daddy
2a. Find a man w/soft eyes Find a man
w/no hands Find a man w/no home
2b. PRAY
3. Ain’t no MAN ya’ daddy
3.a When the first moon spills open like
a cavernous beast & your
mother forgets to draw the curtains
of her smile
3b. the floorboards can be the sledge hammer
3c. flush a splinter from the base
beneath your big toe
3d. hold it like a pitchfork (or a gun)
3e. swing (aim)
