Ephemeral, late
Distinct
Heat below the clothes
Shaking and popping down Clifton ave

The rat’s house, underneath
I am shaped like water for you
The soft cigarette
Car alarms chittering across cubist blocks

Breathe out, breathe in
August sugars geysers of heat-dancing now
It’s standard
Little Orange Pills

Everyone hurts
These clouds quiver like hammers dousing
