CORK


shown my shreddable
spiral metal
i am pierced
wounded or was always on fire
singed
a dumb duck in his gasoline suit
i hope this goes 400 mph
i am creating my own constellations
over middle nebraska
this one is a dumb pretty horse
leaping
into my throat
there are infinite lights or all is darkness
just waiting
i would breathe nothing away from you
i am spaced
& willing to space farther
where light cannot gather
i am smoked out
i am off earth
drowned in atmosphere
i was never prepared for
i have no need 
for any of this though
i could come back to earth
any day now
but i am a satellite
swimming in tide
but always away
til it is all ocean
only me
everything there
