Vesica for the Unname

’20s: In the warehouse-basement the air is a thin host,
cold as filed marble; I lay vellum (skin pretending innocence)
and draw charcoal slow — scrape, hush, smudge — until graphite grit
blooms like dark communion on my tongue: anamnesis, ash-sweet [ ]

’10s: The drawer labeled UNPLACED yawns; mothwing powder
lifts in a shiver. Radio-static threads the conduits — 
voices without bodies, bodies without names — while my hand,
dutiful, advances across one cartouche that will not stay [ ]

’00s: Salt halos the seams — preserve/corrode — so letters flake
into a gray weather. Lichen inks its patient green syllables
along the margins; the pitting reads as braille-like prayer, unread,
and the palimpsest answers only by smearing (do not unname) [ ]

’90s: Gloves snap; protocols hum; a clerk’s voice, clinical as mercy,
slides fragments into acid-free sleep. Here the labels form a cenotaph,
and the oval name-frame turns apophatic — kenosis in limestone — 
blank as refuge / blank as violence, both kept in the same mouth [ ]

’80s: Chalk outlines the absent statue, a white stigmata on concrete;
I walk its perimeter as if circling a sephirah gone dark,
refusing the deciding criteria, feeling it anyway — pressure in the wrist — 
as the stone under paper shivers, then steadies, refusing pardon [ ]

’70s: Fluorescents gutter; time counter-rotates, decade by decade,
while my hand completes its forward crawl and finds — only air,
an empty cartouche etched between breath and breath.
I swallow the grit, and keep watch without a word:

Ossuary for the Uncrowned: Veilwork

HAND — Matins
Floodlights stitch a false noon to chain-link — 
sodium glare, clinical, unblinking.
We cross the gate into the municipal ossuary:
plinths stacked like ribs; effigy torsos crated, numbered.
Limestone dust lifts — ash without incense — 
and rusted bolts stud the slab, hard stigmata.
Severed hands, chalk at the wrist,
keep the old gesture — command disguised as blessing.
not forgiven / not forgotten

KNOCK.

MOUTH — Prime
A marble head lies face-down in gravel,
mouth sealed to earth — learning silence by pressure.
Ivy tongues the jaw; lichen salts the lips, o/e,
slow psalm in spore-script.
Here we would accuse —

— but the air will not carry it.

EYE — Vespers
Bolt-holes hold rain — small chalices of torque;
the sky reduced to dark coins.
We cup one, lift it — our palms become a lustrum — 
then pour it back through the hole
so the hollow rinses itself: not absolved, only cooled.
Votive wax, warmed between thumb and knuckle,
falls — soft counter-monument — 
and we anoint the broken plaque on its block, altar-stone,
letting missing letters keep their witness.
not forgiven / not forgotten

THRONE — Lauds
Between lines, time-lapse: crowns crack into grit-halos;
iron blooms green; dust resettles like verdict.
Kenosis spreads — emptiness with weight.
Dawn arrives like a clerk, stamping light.
We rise — orphans of our own kneeling — 
tongues chalked with ash, throats tuned to an unfinished amen.
not forgiven / not forgotten

The Nave of Late Hunger

Who keeps the stockpots breathing after hours, their steam a white hush that climbs the steel like prayer learning muscle, while the fluorescent hum sutures night to tile and sirens outside write red equations through rain.

Whom do I welcome when I lift the ladle — chalice-spoon, moon-sickle — drawing broth in slow orbits, portioning warmth with a tin-tick, as if mercy had a measurable volume.
Bowl set down.

Who enters and changes the room’s weather: shoulders dripping, eyes scanning exits, a stranger whose need is so ordinary it becomes occult — an unnameable presence in plain clothing — so that he is in the line and you are in my hands and we trade pronouns without consent.
Bowl set down.

Whom do these chipped bowls confess, hairline-cracked relics that hold without owning, their wounds finer than my ethics; dishwater turns to dark chrism, oil-sheen sigil-film, and bus tokens, coins, small alms-keys bloom in the drain’s throat. Bandaged fingers, soap-burned knuckles — stigma without theater — wipe, rinse, stack: clink, clink, then the room stops —
SERVE
WAIT
LISTEN

Who is the broken loaf behind the counter, never centered, always peripheral, and why does my shame recoil at the almost-recognition in your glance, as if refusal were a door I keep polishing. Whom do I fail each time I look away, and whom do I finally meet when I do not. After the last tray, a damp forehead imprint ghosts the tabletop; a napkin bears a grease-seal, host-shadow; steam rises, rises, as if the air were keeping communion for the one who eats last.

Athanor Aperture


SIFT / in the sub-crypt, sssh — flour atomizes into halo-ash, a pale aura seeking every pore of basalt; above, the choir’s paper-wings keep counting.


SEAL / salt in its dish, vow-grit; candle stubs gutter, beeswax pooling into melted seals; linen folds like a letter that will not open; the brass key warms, tooth-star, in my pocket.


NAME / the leaven without writing it — h/th — knead, k/g, until hunger, that feral theologian, learns a softer grammar; soot under nails, my honest dark.


WAIT / cover the bowl; time presses its ear to the dough; the blank space swells—


Still the sanctuary lamp, red glass, unlit — lumen withheld.


SCORE / seven slashes: sigils-wounds; the blade writes what the mouth refuses; ash-thumbprint, accidental cross, at the edge.


FEED / the oven-mouth opens — oo/oh — red, breathing; athanor-tabernacle; slide the host in, a flour-moon minted from ash and breath; heat snaps; crust answers in crackle.


HIDE / pale rounds cool on the rack, small moons learning silence; Matins thins the dark to milk — still concealment deepens, still devotion and desire share a mouth, still hunger stays holy in the throat.
