He was killed after being fully grown,
And for him a bugle had been blown;
Music made;
Properly laid;
Burled in Arlington are parts of bones.

I breathe you in
I breathe you in
The scent of lust
The sense of longing
Of building trust

You're part of me
The fuel I need
To live life free

oh hark - how sweet!

is spread in turning trees,
revealed like stains
on hems
of far Missouri hills.
Few search
or care or know
your soft fruit—
few dare taste
tart sweetness—
trouble
to spoon aside
infestations
of seeds.
Like seasons,
they go to waste—
not savored,
unused, unappreciated—
burled relatives,
overripe pawpaws
past remembering,
lingering
as age spots of early fog
on winter’s
stern harvest....
