Feast

In the meadow Lao men
Slaughter a cow
Apocalypse Now
Tribal feast
Beast of burden
A sledgehammer on skull
Knife
Gut it clean simple
Light streaks sky with low murmurs
No songs or musical instruments
Men hack skin tendons muscles
Women stoke fires
Tribes gather for the feast
Shadow of white butterfly
Voices ebb and flow
Cuticles trimmed
Floating world’s river
Mercenary butterfly shadows
River language
