Poetry, Week 37: Jenkin Benson
if i just type “liminal” one more time then maybe this will all be worth it
the limen spaces
and the spaces sill
like thresholdized thede
tilth limiting
your space and its bounds
which izes in’er
lines’n’bankments
unboughtably curbed
cause you care bout lines
meters perilimp’d
limpids midst the mulch
of circumcision
circumferences
of circonfines fringed
like cellulosic
periedgery
the cornua of
our eyelidery
so oblique so slit
borduring métriques
accreting rut of
parapheria
urled brim inverged rim
verse of abuttal
this marchers theory
ignores surety
a closure and a
bound are tantamount
