alceda darkwood window
the sash suspended
glass before another tree
whose name i once knew
who drips ripening fruit
and then the wild cherry
who is just getting started

ovenbird The cold face of a ladder meant to lift Joan of Arc from the licking flames. Light lying on a white sill. An image from childhood framed and hung. Everything blurred by my sand scoured eyes that won't be cured by crying. 260722

raze walnut pieces and pulped wood. creased pages on a pillow that's never held a human head. the cryptic body language of an unmade bed. a rake guarding an empty guitar case. a tambourine in a messy nest of coaxial cables. empty boxes upturned on an uneven table. the desk lamp my mother gave me when i was sure there'd be light_enough to carry me through all the years of my life. ceiling tiles too tired to keep their stories straight. two torpid tvs. their featureless faces as dusty as everything else down here. 260722
