wishers

1.
Here
I am sheltered
by the ones who knew
the land before
the ones who came to
claim the land from the free
state where we are saved by
possibility of being one of the
failing heart wishers on the
ends of a pulley bone.

So here is a spell
to lay between us
to never be
on knees
confessing
just to fill a

void-

through this

.

we move

to meet center,

as animals
staring with eyes set
upon
there

2.
we'll wait out
to watch the conflicted
run bankrupt
