Making & Passing

New new new new new

bluster the young birds in spring.

An old branch holds them.

Generation.

Strange word: both making and passing.

I WANTED ONLY A LITTLE

I wanted, I thought, only a little,

two teaspoons of silence—

one for sugar,

one for stirring the wetness.

No.

I wanted a Cairo of silence,

a Kyoto.

In every hanging garden

mosses and waters.

The directions of silence:

north, west, south, past, future.

It comes through any window

one inch open,

like rain driven sideways.
