Blight of Eyes
Skin molt with corm and bone rill choused in the plow of her forehead where I once pressed my lips bloodied with mill-weed and choke and the nettles and briar tungsten and the yellow corn
blight of eyes gone sallow with fretting and misjudgments and never once a cackle or a sharp invective (the chaff never separated from the absence of skin)
Omphale’s Whore
Omphale’s Whore
Ears sheeted with rags
A wailing
A wailing
Neither apiary
Nor tallow
Nor tallow
Could stop
Omphale sluing man
Into bivalve, slurry
Into bivalve, slurry
And conch
