Origami Micro-chapboook

Selected Poem(s)

Bones, of Animal Tooth

To George Dutra

{mooblock=face the dawn}

sober is an angry word

drunk is a four letter scrabble answer
worth points several,

when you talk, like a seductive robot

I flinch, a rabbit at carrot stalk
whispering secrets

my teeth like marble to acid

beer to pinky Zelda heart cheek

talking, and we are awake on anti-

depressants

anti-anxiety pills melting chalky sweet
on left half of upper tongue

details motionless against insufflated
gravity

less full,
more for the taking
