Ephesia Grammata


Artemis’ resignation letter was plucked by a funny thin Dactyl
with fingers like long yellow stamens.
(I imagine a thumbprint of pollen on each plundered piece.)
It was Damnameneus, The Hammer,
The sadhowless shadowless shadow caster.

By what gray lathe they came to me I may yet never know.
But I administer them some commonly, nouns and verbs alike.
