If a Laser Pointer Split the Eiffel Tower in Two

I have always been a moley person

dotted with definitive body identification

a pedigree map of sun splotched clusters


My aunt once connect her daughter with a sharpie

a cousin of mine

who resembles me in the way of mole placement


A car accident shattered her sense of smell

which parallels our grandmother

whose was stolen by Scarlett Fever


We slept topless

in the wide windowed studio

playing the part of those willing to live so closely to noise


Within the wave of tourists

she asked me to describe la ville de l’amour

I detailed the piss soaked streets of Paris
