Where to send, how to convey?
...To any open female, uncomplete joint.
...By any sneaking thing.
I’d send a lobster scuttling
through the rocks, certain—
a string of flies in linked arms.
I’d shock them to halves if I could,
these fishers of men, these girls,
fronds soft in the water—
fresh water, jumped from sand,
mesdames.
