nails and molecules
in the bedroom wall
we shoot nails
turn screws
bolts
into the wall
the homestead of a pipe-chewing hillbilly
your redneck-meadow  cairn i have visited
rubber sheet bed full of amber piss
the wild cat with springing legs
primordial heart
3am lungs
loud
two kids weeping before a judge
too stupid to comprehend vows as such
but brave none the less
in love
fold these walls in to a small box
small metal molecules
old particles
atoms
