Neon (Ne)

     New York City, Saigon
                                    consuming, air drawn, homeless light

                          cher frère, draw back the signs—
                                                                            December's briars iced, distilled
                                         trees, merchandise-less field—

      Neon traces, ghosts (erasure's laugh),
                    gesture                              reddish-orange tracts—


                           the bone lottery blink drones on
