2. Refracted Reflections

i think maybe each passage
marks us,
most especially in our actions
and those named knowledges

we seek
or flee,
there is
i suspect

or maybe “know”, no
escape.  these names aren’t lent us
they mark us

as we, cattled
respond peacefully
to that gentle voice, in
the instant before our slaughter.
