barn birds

hungry in

the rain

•

•

•

inside you’re

just stuffed

with rags

•

•

•

blurred aerial

photographs

of the bed

•

•

•

after the hens

the cat eats

a bit of their grain

•

•

•

the beach bugs

got blown

inland

•

•

•

at the tree line

clouds become

rivulets of mist

•

•

•

her long nails

get in

my food

•

•

•

twenty dollars

for a bag

of rocks

•

•

•

summer rain

we grow comfortable

with infidelity

•

•

•

then the thing

is over and

we go back

•
