the bark of a greyhound is nothing like the bark of a tree / though both bloodstained—

the language so poorly cut any detective would choose silence

leave the words like puzzle pieces that won’t click / floating at the edge

of the table, perhaps breezed with a sleeve / and lost on the carpet

perhaps in a moment of emotion unrelated to puzzles / or movements of the mouth (as most are)

the detective's shin high cousin calls them “flying stars” / although they don't fly fall or shoot they propel

but a star propelled is speaking relative

hello!! the letters in that specific collage were done by using the backing of a sheet of mostly-used letter stickers. the silver and coppery letters are the actual stickers where as the rest of them were made using the sticky backing behind the stickers, peeled off and stuck on a piece of paper then colored in with marker and cut out. depending on the stickiness of the backing u could reuse it many times and its an excellent way to get free stencils or fill in places where uve run out of a certain letter. the same technique (and in fact the leftover letters from the same sticker backing) was used here.
