Mark

by Christopher Stackhouse

as a mark is made it becomes an image
as you make a mark you become the image
of an image making a mark – remaining
frames your tree as what was once now gone
the “ephemeral monument” to phosphorescence or
the vapor, the audience, the contrast, the sophist-
ication swollen by a bee sting, sort of reddish,
a pyrotechnist “walking the finale”-
