Fingermusic
Splinters shivering into cold graves,
harden them with chemicals,
garden out the minerals,
rip out all the ventricles
Bleeding, tossed, time lost, gauze on
the spit covered carpet,
gray shades in darkness,
efficient, artless
Fingernails digging into forearms,
smells like worms,
inhabits urns,
vomits
Split pea soup into the chicken coup,
good green grass,
makes eyes droop,
on stoop, dazed
