TonGue

“TonGue”
by Carrie (Carolyn) Crocker as featured in “Steak Knife Poetry Zine“

True Hearts
Never Reveal
They just KNOW
Your sins
your weakness
your words
are vibrating
to a revolution
within
there are turns
up
turns
down
turns back and around
Along the shadows
path
flickering
glistening
w/halos
of specks
&atoms
Beyond TonGue
Dust Energy
This Glimmer
on your on your tonGue
rolling out
between your mouth.
revealing move in one breath
beyond even your own death.
These Concrete spaces
of a different herd
have no time
or place
faces
in your stance
in your side-step
repeat
hands rising for the breath
the exhale of de-Rail
sounding out
Where are those
non-destructive palm prints
soft
Pushes
pushing a space
between
what is
& isn’t seen
Where are your teeth girl?
Where are your bones?
Living alone
solid
silent
as sliding
stones against stones.
