Some ku

empire fog another white layering our inching every last

ð

   : thunder obeying, 

the violet.

                     She became the

ð

she 
feeds 

the 
gulls

a 
closet
ful 
of 

pipes & 
shoes

ð

violet died in spring swells tomorrow on in after on

ðthe sea between
      wooden buttons
   intimacy

ð

thought 
   you

         said


 don't

            just

    throw 
    a 
  
             way

        the 
         fog
