committed
am a mole
living between walls
clinging to lathe strip
drywall mud
dragging my pink tail
through six miles of dusti suck hot suspicion
between paranoid halls
their voices vibrate
i poke my fringed nose out
fresh air upon my stained claws
deaf and blind and oh so dumbmom has her knives out
she’s grinding them down
their edges stochastic infinities
and her eyes smell like rust
her breath full of religion
from a greased green bottleblood and fur gather in my belly
leaves my breath sour
because i taste doctors’ wires
her phone call between my teeth
there’s no question
she’s buying what they’re selling they’ll come boots soon to leer
with clamps and tongues of beer
god have mercy upon this mole
