Capable of Being

 

                Rachel Chibnik

               

The potential dead have wings yet we are falling
out of sync with humbled tongues pressed faintly
to the glass of an aerofoil. Each parasol unveils wraiths through
quiescent slumbers in the
time it takes to trace a single passage through a universe.
The living and all their fury will martyr for consumption and,
like winter's perspiration, ever so faintly
grow accustomed to this unconditioned falling.
