forgiveness on the range




broke a tone, samovar, it’s in the reading

of the liber mortuis where stabilization resides,

where the path brokers a time a place—


a memory of aristocracy’s station. I abstracted

an eye for you, a compassion—stereoscopic

vision, carry forward the impossibilities, 


race me for some tacos, arrested with foresight,

comrades, sputter—but never forgive!
