Poems

When you come back to me
it will be crow time
and flycatcher time,
with rising spirals of gnats
between the apple trees.

Every weed will be quadrupled,
coarse, welcoming
and spine-tipped.

The crows, their black flapping
bodies, their long calling
toward the mountain;
relatives, like mine,
ambivalent, eye-hooded;
hooting and tearing.

And you will take me in
to your fractal meaningless
babble; the quick of my mouth,
the madness of my tongue.
