First Magnitude by Kelli Cain

one lifts one’s hand across one's face

one gestures toward a wall

one extends a gift, one strokes a beard

one crosses a square of other ones

ones in white remove ones’ gowns

one covers oneself, ones come to touch

one other one speaks to sky

one paints a scene, one other scolds

one walks the sand, ones march to cover

ones hold ones’ staffs, one shades one other

one strikes one’s drum

ones play despite

one sleeps, one speaks

one strokes one’s cheek

one other one gestures toward a book

one and every one hold one’s breath

one and every one swell with signs

ones in white cross a square of ones

one lifts one’s hand

one lifts one’s hand

one gestures toward one other one

one passes food

one flies above

one after one ride toward other ones

one after one sit by other ones

one strikes to speak

one comes to touch

one kisses one after one on one’s cheek
