  • Description

  • Brink by Anne Marie Rooney

    We traintrack
    We thunder to the dreaming men and I’m in the pool, loving
    a man’s neck
    We man’s neck and street,
    meal a bloodless scuffle in hard light
    What happens at night
    Fear and the amok animal
    Language in the kitchen with a scar
    Lips we appled in Were There
    and,
    Not Married, Yet, to Honesty
    To a rounded, blued-in room
    Entree to woman’s house
    This never happened, we sisters, we brinked
    against red cars
    Leave, she said
    and I left my photo in her mouth
