lamps

in the dark heat

sputter on

•

•

•

the bronze

mantle clock

has no knobs

•

•

•

the stars

were there

waiting

•

•

•

the goats have ravaged

the recuperating

pines

•

•

•

while the others

eat one hen walks

around talking

•

•

•

suddenly

the purple windows

of dusk

•

•

•

why do you

have dice

in your sock

•

•

•

the frog

drives the dogs

back inside

•

•

•

a jay

without a crest

shadows me

•

•

•

dust and feathers

brush free

from the egg

•
