Illumination

Rata Gordon

 

My eyes open and they chew

on the light as if

they are chewing on cornflakes.

It gets mushy.

I was looking at a deer

in the trees in San Francisco.

The deer was still there, but

then I was thinking about my armpit hair

and how bad

I am at dancing.

See how my eyes

have chewed this up?

It is unrecognisable.
