Early Spring
Now she is going with the rain, like a blinking
stoplight, falling methodically. Nothing
in the world is knowing. Her ears burst,
a slow suicide of clouds coerced
to reincarnate. I promised her long similes
and the wintry teeth of my smiles.
With her I wanted to park my prayers
beneath a billboard. My eyewear is
empty, as are my armpits. The milk in
the refrigerator has soured.
Roadblocks
Given said variance, rather my side of the orchard,
is it merely about the hookup where I’m legislating
other pods in daisies, an enormous yellow grove
between the gurney and the exhilaration of Formica
in her eyes? One touch of my hand, the gavel lands,
and she’s constellated. I wandered through a feverish
belief in teeth biting grass, in half-awake moans.
Across the city of night, breasts, waists, throats pure
as punctuated skies. I took Mr. Blue to cafés, spoke grief
to all the distingué faces, also too, in the fly business.
