Unleavened eclipse swerves
toward doubt-skinned dawn
curves into encircled day
to spin its messenger slaves
corralled on Ishmael’s island
faithful to the final diamonds
fractions of a transparent decay
disinterred by tricycled denial.
Heron boned heretical smiles
carried in a pouch below the mouth
sinking mountainous without.
Charm shunned and asymmetrical,
a prisoner’s circumference of a shout
to a harrowed Christ, a simpler
cry baby confusion, coexistent
except for one expulsive shot
swollen with wonder, siphoned down
and under, cut across and circumcised
in a notation by a cross-eyed scribe.
A frozen century awaits dominion.
