SPLAY WITH A STONE
Create voice with bone,
tip voice with steel,
die voice with a journey,
clot voice with a word
and you, unconditionally
Plough with a stone from the pyramids
plough with a stone
and don’t splay the earth, and don’t splay
it, gather singular
singular
Without make-believe,
without making time.

 
Poet's Note: (The poem speaks to Elisa)
