—after Philip Metres
Identity isn’t [always easy to identify
there is blood and belief and] an end—
it’s a portal, [the acquisition of language,
the untrained turns of tongue,] a deportation
from the country [profiting off precise word-fare by
attacking ancient inkwells, those dark pools] of mirrors,
an inflection [inside the terrified esophagus
instinctual utterance of danger] within a question,
punctuation is [the alternative to silence
this revolution is illegible] the sentence
of birth [and death is a foreign dialect].
