[Realpoetik] HEIDI LYNN STAPLES [Part Two]

[RealPoetik Magazine]

PSALM 74: 16-17



She prays drift’s bride,

Earthite estoile drift’s bride:

Agrope five hundred years



Feather-like

Amant

Nun. Agrope hand






PSALM 45: 7-8



Substance ambergris, fixing the scentedness:

Polar Pod, prey Pod, has lower jaw of teeth single nostril

Economic expansionists prey for tallows. You prey arms against squid

Reservoir, man wants nose,

Man’s castles lit, petrol now



What bright lamps

How seas culled

And

Let,

Earth’s dive wave’s heave wake’s forehead.
