periphrasis

A black-and-white drawing of a bird pasted onto an x-ray of a hand, as if holding it. Words from a page of Emily Dickinson's poetry are cut out and pasted onto the page to make a poem.

periphrasis

THERE’S something I do not understand
heaven ajar
Within THE soul
a sprig
of dead
birds
