That curve of the tongue of the spiny anteater 
engaged in a deliberate sequence of elevation
conscious decisions each fully automated
each androgynous circumstance 
a little death in silence 
all turned inside 
exotic crisp light intrudes 
the morning hurts in the back of the head
if light itself were the blade 
it's illumination effected mayhem
the moon and its memory of fading away
is now growing strong
its light over the valley 
as she dances in the trees
her life erasing details 
in the sand under the sweep of her 
missing foot
