ugh a claw in the blood
 teeth blue with words that will not wait
 .............................I also will not wait
 I will not deliver babies
 or think or wait or want
 I have nothing to do with smoke or images
I will not go wanting
 tonight I will scratch it out
 in dead chitin, triplicate, in the sand and blood
 the dust that speaks.............whirling
 I will write all poems everywhere
 with a chicken's claw
 ..............................in the blood from my thigh
 ..............................light lit light upon light 
 switchback/heaving/underwater/surge
 .....................................all these faraway inner edges
.
