For OA
-Carbon
Single touch Born by a frenzied, rosined bow A string vibrating over the air
Caught in translucent cycles
Leaning into the pulse beneath Then Pouring into the skin above
This trenchant lithograph of skin
It is your heart's firmament A sky of glistening cells The veins your soil Irrigated with sanguine
Contact, press, and hold Glide and streaming as a beehive
The dialect of blinking senses The spirit looped around carbon Until it bursts
Open
