Hilary Ann
wearing his dye
like ashes on wednesday
he worships
breathing beauty
...
...
...
walking forever
...
...
...
oh, if only it were green
living in a world where trees no longer hold back the sky
can't catch me, can't touch me, can't hold me
just a milkweed seed carried by the wind
that whistles through every crack in this old house
Come into my garden
where words sprout their horns and spires
where clauses spread their unholy petals
under the cold eye of the sun
