Boundaries

By genetic accident-
I fall in your way.
A city sleeps between the arms.

Will you give me 
a nickel of memory ?
I have lost my home.

What do I do 
with the moon ? The night 
has called for the sun.

Making a nest for 
the sparrows. Want to 
hear the domestic voices.

Here, the dreams 
go. I am selling the 
family silver.
