The slow closing of
(a breath in: warm
surroundings:
two arms are lovely
simple, browned a bit
by hair and sun, they
collect everything: spring weather
the gathering of clouds
my elbows & hands that shudder
like oak leaves,
close and warm as
the horizontal lines of a forehead)
my tired eyes at night.
