With long thick trunk and bent hacked branches
you are contorted
as the escape artist found still chained
and with his heart stopped
in the locked vault
he vowed he could break free of. I am not your jailer,
though my keys jangle
in my pocket as I walk. First the fields
grew mirrory with buttercups,
then the orange hawkweed arrived
fervently lighting the green hills. Only you
remain skeletal,
marking the dirt road
with your glacial amputations, your
desperate freeze-framed dance
stripped clean of tremor. What shriek
is kept back in you, what cry? And secrets,
secrets, cold and blank as panic.
