*by Emily Bowles*

Epistolarity betrays me—the mailbag upturned,   
Behn’s loveletters, Gildon’s cruel parroting, and   
an awkward break  
 chiasmus

dance sleep   
sleep dance

hauntings of a Crooked Mind:

*I have learned a lesson, my lessening*

A crooked body is a crooked mind  
A crooked body begets a crooked mind   
A crooked body doesn’t mind

that

  
I make the Happiness I cannot find.   
  
And men, all Men

all Men want is  
to make fictions of me   
to make out  
 fictions of me   
to make Your fictions of me

when  
all \[I\] want is  
to give birth to Bunnies,  
to Mary Toft my womb exturning,  
to Mary my womb wonder woman—a story running   
bunny  
 \[anomaly\]   
away with Me.
