"Won't you return if horses buckled bears into a hem in the woods?" -Joshua Marie Wilkinson, from Selenography

Coins



You ask me what I’m made of

and I tell you this


sparrow bones and dust

and bits of thin glass


so I break easily


to demonstrate this

I lowered my head and ran

as hard as I could into a wall


I did the exact same thing

again


I did the exact same thing again


and I wished that the sky

would fall on me

and crush me
