The Virginia Hill Story

[jeff harrison]

Virginia with her heel which faulty attentions would burst
        with her ship's surgeon brought ashore for the ride
        with her hand sounding this roster
        Virginia who heard the shot during her crawl uphill
Virginia with her inadmissible blot sold into darkness
        whose long-legged volunteering petrified them all
Virginia with her toenails waylaid by ruffians, Virginia who
        agrees with me that not everyone understands insouciance
Virginia with her covenant concluding her speech
        with her foil tip bustling up the haze of spite
        with her window erased five miles south
        with her horse insisting the crowd be waved away
Virginia high and dry like the tail of an unworldly person
        with her faint pandemonium quarried back around
        whose symptoms caught their breath once in the evasion's shade
Virginia with her non sequiturs crouched and rotted
        with her rigidly unremarkable canine teeth
        Virginia with Byrd at the South Pole
Virginia who might have envied the sob still ahead
        with her summit sounding like a Spanish doctor
Virginia limping through the pages to indicate sleepless purpose
        with her shovel pressed for answers twice daily
Virginia whose verse is too late for the fetus
        with her clay on all fours beneath her skirt
        with her blue sky movements feverishly across the lake
        with her withered scabbard scissoring briefly to life
Virginia whose nerves are still staring out to sea
        Virginia with her recognition tucked into my waistband
        with her uncommon constitution prepared for another midst
        with her perverse need for antiquated conveniences
        with her insinuation that lucidity is better at a distance
Virginia with her still-burning ordeal of abolitionist reserve
        with her hospitable inclusion of coordinate predicates
Virginia whose last twilight went in for a ten-year stretch
