vultures III

Jennifer MacBain-Stephens

 

The sky lights up/a razor over chin/respecting curves/still dropping bodies/ hard: no witnesses/A salvaged heaven/not heard for miles/only open for a two day sales event/your soul can enter for a limited time/a cry heard around the earth/ Not Oh but/ This could have been you.
