Sleet Seasonal Supplement — Winter 2010-2011
Sparrows on the rafter
all lined up with the truth behind them,
the blue star
he hasn't hung in years
: loser
of found things,
the one that used to,
again ran,
will
again run,
anyone could have
said that.
Could
have.
The cat reminds me
of her and vice versa.
It is very
quiet at the pool.
I am too cold,
then too hot:
they are small facts,
like my grandmother
coming over
to cut asparagus,
drinking a glass of water,
and driving away.
