PIECEMEAL
A boy severs his fingers,
by accident, in my imagination
where his first thought is
"My mother
will be so frightened"
*
Horn jags
from a radio
as evasive
maneuvers:
extruded ink
jets, sea snakes
turn mouth-forward,
bodies snapping
as if
out of sight
as if
*
over
and over
were a scouting party
that arrives,
piecemeal,
in the third person
