The ghost must live
in a different time zone.
Or it waits until 
just before dawn
to make its rattly noises.
.
They live in a yellow hive of four
in the old wooden house
where the snow comes early
north of where the long trains go.
.
They live in a blue
knot of three, spiring
in a Vancouver tower.
.
We are two
green on an eastern harbor. 
.
I can only
hear the breathing.
