Walking between the field and the last houses at 10pm Poem by Lisa Robertson

Walking between the field and the last houses at 10pm



Walking between the field and the last houses at 10pm
holding the lilacs aloft like a torch
its vital sense of pause
everything will be hesitation
the acts of transposition
muscular, tactile, olfactory
where the image itself senses.

Poems By Lisa Robertson
The one that goes cack-cack-cack
II [What is this tint that in the shrill cress]
Walking between the field and the last houses at 10pm
The pinky moon was swishing all
When I learned grief, its arms changed
