The Slate Step Brightens
:
:
mating dragonflies
the slow folding
of her wings
:
:
out on strike
the uncomfortable hang
of his hands
:
:
winter morning
the scrape of a coat hanger
across its rod
:
:
cemetery
the sharp edges
of the new names
:
:
after rain
the blueness
of fireflies
:
:
20 stories below
the gestures of people
are meaningless
:
:
wittling
till there’s nothing left
of the light
:
:
cold snap
the automatic door
opens slowly
:
:
our goodbye
all the places
where we touch
:
:
party over
the long down
of the elevator
:
:
long slow curve
passing again
beneath the geese
:
:
after snow
a faint yellowness
to the white house
:
:
light rain
the slate step
brightens
:
:
visiting home
in my childhood bedroom
the same shadows
:
:
the mathematician’s wife
pregnant
again
:
:
the river
the river makes
of the moon
:
:
slant of light
the dialect
of the region
:
:
throwing away
the envelope marked
“simplify your life”
:
:
empty mailbox
she leans awhile
on her walker
:
:
new green leaves
a child I don’t know
waves to me
:
:
New Year’s Day
a message on
the answering machine
:
:
mosquito
I hit nothing
but myself
:
:
slow dance
feeling her smile
in my neck
:
:
TV store wall
every sky
a different blue
:
:
midnight thunder
the clock
starts over
:
:
morning dew
no hiding the way
we’ve come
:
:
first autumn wind
not feeling the knife
slice my finger
:
:
excavation site
the holes
living things leave behind
:
:
practicing
to make my signature
look natural
:
:
equinox party
returning home
the way I came
