Clamor

Poetry.

by E. B. Moore




Print yourself in Braille
oh war          your sword-points

through paper            Rasp
blindly reading fingers   their flesh

made absent to the bone   oh
bone      oh hideous

digits                Rasp more
as readers kiss

their marrow tallied knuckle
after knuckle     rasp

'til carrion
on their tongues

they clamor
with the raven
