Fears of a Five Year Old


Hovering Headless

 mannequins

haunting Goodnows

Their long nail-less fingers

finding purchase

in your ribs


Discorporate 

Blue-eyed Indian

woman

watching 

while 

you 

sleep

from the Wakefield

wardobe


Tiny little

hearts

hiding

under the bed

their beats

heard

in the hallways

pooled with piss

and righteousness

the pulse

and then

the

long final 

beep

of

Asystole
