When listening to catch with intimate hooks
a drift of King James or a coroner conversation
take learned literary syllable as seeded fluff
to velcro; then in order to please, assemble
miniatures in the cabinet of ungainly light

track the order of days mathematical procedure
measuring the lack of presence and absences cut

to singular, grow collectively, poems substitute
for rabbit hunting, snares apply to mind theorems

of emotional shuttle, instability, flow, stoppage
so say junk, river, longing, preciousness, spew
liquid paper, page down, right, backspace and to

say where to put, why, underlying, consequences,
fit to identity with paper tabs, adjust collars
sleeves, head, to hang along the trembling seams
