crack my ribs and (unfinished)

crack my ribs and
set this golden hummingbird free-
soaring out dangerously-
spreading its wings of kerosine-
infecting and flaring the night with its tearing light-
shouting at the darkness
"go away
go away!
leave him alone.
leave this boy alone!
he MUST know what it means to be protected"
