manticore encore

tail like silk
mane like mercury

a cutting edge roar
bounds over counter
clasps ears with 
slippery palms

an anvil eye
unblistered sky
nobody saw 
summer's denizen

how then
does a blood-
hound 
follow ghosts

into thick
crescents of 
trees

ah
delirium

the morning
breaks 
on its knees
