Another Country

The days unfold like maps. Fresh dirt in the garden, black as cake, grows warm.

Hard Prayer

I walk home through the city. The stars wait behind the clouds like an orchestra for a conductor and windows yawn open

Ode, Elegy, Aubade, Psalm

The songbird that escapes from a burning house will build its nest in the shape of a cage.
