to you of all people
harvest the leaves of grass
harvest all things mottled, bare of charm
how can you harvest that
like anchors on the seafloor
a luminous watery sky
a wash a watered silk
gather the wings of flies,
...I said, flies.
I know what I said.
yo, measure the beds...
we have lain on, still lie, will lie on
how are you with dogs, I mean
how are you with animals in general?
and leaves that fall now and leaves that don't know
to
how are you over this?
is it courage to feel what you are
to feel what you are feeling
is it courage
gather on white paper
I'm sorry I said that
how are you about being at all?
how are you over this
