every living thing comes
full circle, and stops to eat
out of our garbage
obsessed about the frame
around the window
we took out all the nails, a pillow
for a plate of glass just like an arm,
for underneath my neck at night
the open hole for gardening,
for watching and unlocking
words we never said
underneath the moon
he breaks a bottle on his foot
i continue digging,
preparing for the dawn
