poem 168

 

Make dust of paper skin 

with eyes of salted tear

Defiant i still see 

which claims not to air


Noble hand i will trace 

in ink of sighted black 

Thoughts born to silence 

if claimed will echo


A trail upon every word

for a thousand years 

Blink at searching hounds 

and all will be gone
