Time

I say the sun

is a portal and also

the cutout

vestment of a feeling for going

on. Ticketless, morning

metes

out its open

hour, melted green

hush only just

slightly

upset by the occasional

arriving

jet, like back pay.

Outside, seventeen-year cicadas

fill the air and then

the concrete.

Since Atticus arrived

life couldn’t be

more full, more full of, more off, more

effulgent, glut of all things

grown and sown

until our garden won’t stop

bursting, as what’s

continually new flops

out and open

in the spirit (numen)

of Oppen

and his numer-

ousness, now

ours, so that

this bower unraveling

can happily overflow

capsize and grow

lost, as without knowing how

we find new

way each

morning, each sun

novel, loving

unaccountably

the us that unshuts

the door of light, orange

throng, on

on on
