the fragment is cool-limned
belying its savagery
it glides sleek underthumb
peril ensconced whorlily
captive oceans
(tears and laughter
love and agony)
band in chassis oystery
purpled of prevailing hopes
layered in omniscience
it mocks, clammed as
spiny brined posterity
whole
it sworled epochs
pearls spun
ingrained in
equanimity
demolished
it lacerates tender archways
of sole and memory
