hands
hands make you think of skin don’t they
film of skin, all cracked opaque ringed with lines like old tree stumps
how many lines mean how many years how many breaths
make you think like babies’ hands spools of fat and old people’s hands brown spotted lily livered and
mother hands in dough all thick and floury
and hands make you think of skin touching fingers hands brushing stroking other people hands on yours other peoples hands on your
skin hands make you think of
that
don’t they

calvary
(his hands are crusted in blood, all pierced through with
nails)

the seam of the finger where the bad things get in
like on clothes where the needle flashes up and up
whiteness between nail and flesh
