Breast Lump in the Night Sky and I
Breast lump in the night sky
and I
can hardly feel the moon anymore.
Cancer is that soft-rot
balloon
that zeppelins
by breath and by blood
pass under deep
acres purple in sleep. We
amble blindly there
as horses
cold and chasing down
an empty
bag
of tricks. My face
taped to it.
An unpublished dream, half
an umbrella and a hungry
hungry hippo.
