grass.

"grass".




stems, buds, pieces of life, stalks and chaff, the cold smells of morning

when dew frames grainy sundrops



the wood of a wall, damp, waiting for yellows and golden lines

to draw away the chill

to feed cavities of gray, to lighten with day

bring me dry twists, knots, rivets

the rings and years, temporal rain

seasonal blues
