SENSE
00:00 / 00:38
come twisted from the pitch
into sap and lymph
till the stirrings of a world
accident the surface
as asphalt’s brutal glint
and the trees the trees
see me as I see them
glutted by cloud and bodies
brimming with prophecy
untethered
the mouth the window
water’s lucent edge
photo of a landscape
or are we being greedy
hear the witchgrass calling
disorder disorder
