When Haiku takes a little longer to absolve.

My sister took the scissors and cut her hair in the back.

Fucked it up really

"Is it straight! did I get the ends straight"

she asked me?

We have learned to speak to our

bodies like this - try it yourself -

the tongue can give the language of prolonged crookedness

the power to speak/

o've the years; wanting the sky to be full

of sun, not the love angels

of the usual archives. The scar on her shoulder

where Danny pulled a clump out with his fist in a rage.

She runs to the bathroom as if she is flying. The air

fills with the sound of the toilet flushing.

No one talks about it for a month.

Danny dies of heart disease.
