St. Gemini Collages Photographs of Distorted Dolls in Vulnerable Poses Together With an Ancient List of Indigo-Colored Objects, and Glues Her Revelations Inside the Book of Truth and Water

Poetry by Fox Frazier-Foley

Mountains

& dusk & learning the throat

as a deer part.

Heart

orphans the carcass:

spray of vessels & shells

of gilded metal gathered like a shaved

bowl of iceIridescence

off the tail of a belle mer-

maid

drowning

& dream

those blue pine

needles near. You who so

list to hunt

I know
