southern beeswax
all in the hair

field green

on top - knees shaking
praying and swearing

saying
oh no i can’t
oh no i can’t

one morning
or afternoon
indecision in your faith
seasick and easy

hair in hands
locks and teeth
sorry through hands

carpet burn
and the sound of a woman
panicking in reverse

saying
reaching for
reaching for
reaching for
a memory in reverse
just to end up rushing blind
for the first time
