A Bavarian Winter Poem by Leslie Philibert

A Bavarian Winter



The Alps make me embryonic,
the King of sleep, the wind
a sea inside my ears;

each insignificant leaf
sugar bleached,
hard as a saint`s foot,

each drop of water pearled
and perfectly dead

under a dim sky, underlighted
over the white sheet
that you draw over the passed.

Let the crows pick out
the eyes of Winter.
