Nervous Wanderings

Cockaigne

by Alessandro Cusimano

a sudden rush of sympathy
pure

powder
straining after an effect

wanted

ivory without shame
arabesque
of a nervous wondering
at night

crushed disorder
when the stories are restless
hard light

bonfire

fast intonation
tight electric wire
slight wounded internals
appetite

nexus

real vein
ready to suck back words
cracks
to entice the glance

the breath

anxious to start again
