... august nineteen sixty eight /
in the back of a pickup

A Morning in May
... chambray shirt sleeve
... waving from an old red pickup
...that morning in May
... that morning when everything was possible

... corners
... we creep into corners
inch our way in
there are no doors
to lock
but
we lock them
anyway
no windows
to bar
but
we bar them
anyway

in a cleft
on canyon wall
... two baby owls
...
feathers rise from stone
