Wren's Nest |
Like at the wren’s nest |
Like at rock eagle |
Ironies swirl and hearts are twisted taut |
Around their pivot points |
The stag scrapes his felt on a scrubby dogwood tree |
Like at the warm springs |
Like at key club |
Residuals are what get to one |
Reach toxic levels with time |
Even the pretty fawn is full of wolf worms in the summer |
Oh, so horribly intensely I prayed |
Let me evaporate |
But the dying autumn leaves are beautiful, too |
Like on the flint river |
Like at the mica mines |
Conversations escalated |
Voices trembled and cracked |
The barn owl’s white belly is like a flash bulb |
Instantly illuminated by a moonbeam |
As he swoops silently before us |
Toward a fateful meeting in the forest |
Oh, so horribly intensely I prayed |
Let me evaporate |
