William Allegrezza

loss

dynamic figures of clutter

a ceiling turns and falls through a hole
as the screen goes blank

note the significance
of dante noting
the significance
of numerals

owned
           but still forgotten the same

no chills or fever
or young women waiting
garnered with blue headbands

head for home
for we cannot reclaim
witness
