1076

a rabbit chase
down the heel
slipped honesty
into a brown case

what’s the tragedy
and how do the people
find it
if it’s nothing more
than a fleeting
a flutter of wings
and sorrow

love is the closest
thing to a desk job
now stay below the lights
fill your shadow with
–
dancing slowly
to violins
in the kitchen

the neighbor
associates sex with sadness
always piano interludes
when the door closes

spilling over
filling the courtyard
like it was the only thing
anyone was good at
