Posthuman Coloratura

We seemed to soar for days
before crashing                                 buried
                we daren’t look up

grey clay stuck to skin
sieving through fatbergs                   clawing
                  at foam       pearly wires

under shattered pinata
clouds sung                                    neon
                mysteries repeated

tempered flesh
roosting heaps of.                           p a p e r   d o l l s
