NEW INTELLIGENCE

by rae armatrout from just saying

1
stars
are the campfires
of exiles.

language exists
to pull things
close.

*
stop that!

communications
are being monitored.

collusion is forbidden.

humanity
will be punished

with the profusion
of new jargons.

2
inverted in glass,
a white cup
invents the underworld.

*
fog thins
to chiffon,

nylon,

easter.

*
in the universe next door,
i’m gone

and the shadows
of the leaves

of the elm i had pulled down

still make a fuss
over the earth.
