“I DON’T WANT TO PUSH YOU AWAY”
A rat died in the wall today
three days still the smell
I thought to phone you
to call silhouettes reclining
there our city
moments pestilential
to phone you as I took the ax
smashed it into the wall
save the rat
smashed it weeping
a cough gag rupture
from sweat splinters knead
Relax little mouse
The eclipse has gone
I am here
