March Muddle
Chimney smoke from the house a door down
Seems to have blurred out the moon
The step's a bit high for my short girl legs
But the closest one's coated in ice
Patchy powdered pixie sugar
Hides away crop circles
Melted lava sorbet spills
Across cold winter skies
The grayblue sky
A cherryblossom purplepink
The plants by the wall are frozen peas
I think of saxophones, shiver (SAIL!)
Thinking sideways, thoughts on meth
Orange peels and window flies
(SAIL!) the sad poet's gone away
(SAIL!) yes please, I'll take the lot
Sweating off the dull dead laze
But dehydration now objects
Cold dark sidewalk small bare feet
Winter storm the ice-coated bush
All leaves one question--
Where's the snow?
