X

a poem by Roger B Rueda

on a cay some essential
natures in maillot screw up

their eyes to the waterfront
to shake down for taste.

they goad each other.
their bodies reel on pediments.

all the way through the ordeal
of their time and quirk

of fate prey them on
in silly laughs that hum

from essence as emaciated
as antique vellum and as foible.
