MUSE

I rarely felt such permanent failure
Of touchstone as this, the flight of rain
The damaged feldspar gleams

The best possible red
This creek will ever conjure
Sympathetic magic, dulled pain
By the day’s amnesia

Or the diction of air
More crucial than
This temporary kindness

 

ABSENCE

To practice your arrival
I just kept moving
The impending day back
A week or so later
Its cloistered layers, the papery wall
Of all the ones who slept
Before you
Three hours to refuse
Picture frames tells
A moving story
The morning already
That you are here
I practiced your arrival
Like Piano, to perfection
