No Atmosphere but Ice in My Deep Craters
Rachel Zucker
The bulge-side oceans
quiver and lean. The days seem
long, even in winter. Run it off
trollipe, say the quadriceps,
but when calcium floods the synapse
I pulse, move, breathe.
My body has intentions
my mind can't master.
The heart has nothing to do with it.
Aloof to lipids and casual enzymes,
cardiac muscle keeps the status quo going.
