o

alpha glyphs on runes,

the waning of the moon

and other wan-less strings

of timelessness on rocks,

of omniglot-becomings

so-so soft on lips but still no stone

for v amidst the 7th C, its

voiceless bilabial approximants,

it rebirths a come-back in the

logocentric view of little Beta-Runic Alphabits

re-wynnicized, re-run and re-writ large

in laptop light for two
