from Step
By George Albon
a perfect world
living manifests of
nipple and tip
worked back into
the locus one had
thought delivered
rectangles seep with
the slight growing, to
walk out onto them
a perfect world
the identities
traced above a ground
print as enlarged
location, geographies
of the whorl
the smile that held
no life but an erect
ransom-shadow
