Credit/No Credit

What warmth
is honed to an edge on
what whetstone


These're the cuts
I live by, blunt bubbling
of crowds athwart


That shrouded
thing with shroud-like skin
furnaces along


in shuffles, or
don't you mark such things
with a little hiss,


or don't my
hungers go amiss, change
places, and repent,


doesn't the body
pitch forward into the cold
places, sharpening


itself, a bubbling
of hungers redoubled,
brought to bear


What's carried out
when I scorn the struck match,
seize cheaper fuel


Don't / you / do / it
