Kendall A. Bell

How to slip away from the body

​In between the smallest openings
of counter tops. Under a deep
cover of storm clouds. In the
closet underneath the steps,
under a blanket of wine bottles
and paint swatches. Under the
spell of the dryer, that slowly
tosses each worn fiber of skin.
Beside the outline of a barely
breathing husk. Through every
door, sliding or otherwise, in
a brief twinkle, already forgotten.
