Lemonhead
Rebecca Loudon

I shake apart
like those airplanes
on the bottom of Lake
Washington props
stuck at 9 and 4

be calm
shudder inside
the giant
water bug glide
clean clean
a little stab
& skim

our stint at the artificial
limb company a soggy
season in the airport
hotel

let's lie on the prow
and part the sea
like Charlton Heston
we can lose our bodies
just smelling it
