Reuben Woolley


echometry

there is distance
between me and me
I can't see my shadow
the echo
stares back silent
unblinking
I don't measure
reflections · shapes
of light unlit
ghosts of words
undead

prometheus gambles

I didn't escape today
I witnessed lines
walking in disorder
unbleeding in grief
no blame there
but I am staked out
against the light 
and the rocks
liver beaked

--

 theft

they took meaning from us · all
these words are just
empty hieroglyphs
to play with · I hear you
so sound exists · no song
the music stutters
but cannot end
repetition does not hold
our attention is on
burlesque dancers
who forgot to can
can
