important news

on cheap

paper

•

•

•

your gaze averted

the cherry blossoms

pop

•

•

left at the gazebo

a bible wrapped

in cellophane

•

•

•

closer to

the moon than you

two young cypresses

•

•

•

at last open

for the morning

daffodils

•

•

•

the moon makes

the clouds glow

like milk

•

•

•

the moon knows

all of

your names

•

•

•

the moon knows

none of

her names

•

•

•

missing a tooth

the cat seems

to smirk

•

•

•

vine leaves

yellow and hang

like bats
