poem from "The Stuttering of Wings" by Sheila E Murphy
all afternoon I have been writing
the biography that you forgot to live
alert me once again to sequins past
their prime and ours, I feel all loose
and clean this morning, every bit
of ink and paint I need is in this
room of harbingers, a permanent
black ink becomes analogous to phone
voice trying to release, having just
mastered the grasp
