Remergence
MIND YOUR THROATS PLEASE
Brass limping out of daylight.
Hay in their teeth.
Father buried in static.
Mother chalk washed away.
Dung still underfoot.
Choir gagged.
The cow returned.
She ate newsprint.
Dripped milk on telegrams.
Taxi door opened.
The scarf man never left.
Dog sounds split into vowels.
Nicknames burning.
Fruit still falling.
Paper bag truth.
Organ out of fog.
Dead uncles laughing on tape.
War counterfeit.
Socks holed with prayer.
Choir static.
Horn faded.
The cow blinked.
