MAGGIE BUTT

Small

Let me be a lone mosquito hunting
in the dark, dive bombing into ears,
stealing sleep, carrying fatal charge.

Let me be a hair-line fracture in the slim
bone of a toe, shifting stride to shuffle
tumbling the proud edifice of the body.

Let me be a Lisbon flower girl
who slips a fresh carnation in the barrel
of a gun, and blooms a revolution.
