Broken Clouds

Sky full of holes
fingers falling like damp feathers
of concrete
              upon yr uncertain lips—

Heart like a hammer

as I meant to explain the bones of a prehistoric
Cadillac w/pieces of rain
                              & a list of suspects
              only marginally personified
by a stutter-step w/Black Mazatlan,
Iggy Pop, Attila the Gun, &
Malibu Barbie
                              (half asleep like Mike Tyson’s fist
              & rocking the velvet indiscretion
pretending to remember the weight of a single
iron tear
