lightbulb (v9)


lee whittier





eyem thinking only of this lightbulb
only of this lightbulb above me
eyem thinking only of this lightbulb
this lightbulb the way it
would taste in my mouth if
eye could unhinge
and let it roll and bob stiff and
smokey
eyem thinking only of this lightbulb
this lightbulb the creature
which lives inside and
calls it home can I
entice it out to crawl
down my throat feeling
its way in the dark til
it opens to a luminous cavern and die there
on the soft ground now a fossil
say it again
fossil
oh yea fossil
