Jan 25, 2012


a whole gold leaf
to cover more than space-
the cutting of air, into & over-
the thrill of the slice
of the sky.

a poem is only a little chaos.
evidence of expansion.
the shadow of the soul.
moss be with you. me without
the farms well I’m mostly fielded.

it only takes four small seeds
to fall, for months under.
don’t make me make
you say underwear.
a silly bunch of leaves is this.

a yet to be raked.
a blade ablaze in
the nimbus of your throat.
purple fruit or close to it.

i wonder even still how Pluto must feel,
to be the 9th man,
 a catcher of orbits
& drift a year too far,
wind up forgotten.

there’s way you know to water from rocks.
even cold, get north to south.
