Poem 16: rock

i'm sure i've been on that rock
looking out with formaldehyde hands
spinning the lead floss un-candy clouds into a
coarse thread dyed with salt tears
interwoven with damp kelp into a
harris tweed tunic

i wear it sometimes even now
its phosphorescent glow illuminates
the darker corners of my existence
