    Albert K. Ashes-Bury’s Power Variation (Only Size 11s, Unfortunately)

    They cut my head off
    without knowing
    it grows back
    in a new century. Thoughts follow me

    a touch, though not down here:
    I don’t know where I’m going.
    Who needs a head? The body?
    The victor? I would do better

    without a head. I still don’t know where I’m going.
    No goals. No books on goals or history—sorry.
    The rest was unnecessary:
    they cut my head off.

    The line breaks and hanging line indents may be incorrectly formatted because I cannot be bothered to fiddle with the HTML. View the correct formatting in the full collection To a Blind Horse (and subscribe at the top of the page).
