DECONSTRUCTION
for DL
by Amanda Deutch

eating buildings dismantling cities she is
carrying mouthfuls of bromides boneliest
swallows shadows and regurgitates bricks
(you can’t tell what’s going up and what’s coming down)
try clipping through dim urban spaces and
speaking try tongues
touching images
(No one’s touching anymore anyway)
live elements or lime skins
why it makes you dismantle the self you might
have been once
in the slag heap and guts
