Iguana by Naree Sinthusek I Surrounded by the shallow walls, an eye Stares out, pale hazel glinting towards the night Where shadows fall crookedly backwards, this, My clumsy face, so weak and soft a kiss Could crumple it. Like worn out, broken leaves. The patient breathing of this monster heaves Wayward tunes, floating briskly, rasping clear As old men’s hands, which beg the warmth draw near; Reverses his stance, thumps awkwardly far. The rhythm of an eager jig still marred By vast and dusty sheets of skin, once tight. Which fly and fall, to rot beneath his height. He winks in time to loud incessant sounds. The sounds of heartbeats, full and round, surround The light that is his cage, he leaves the corners Untouched and naked. These tattered mourners Of rope, frayed and sagging, so long embraced By tiny hands will fall like other waste. Like skin, like glances meant for windows who. In their bright clarity, exposed green, blue. And brown, reflections of my own tired eyes Which hunt for other gloamings in this night.^
