DOVES
I don’t want to leave the house today
the backyard is wondering
what that means
and I am too
Outside doves are assembled
as if for a wedding
I guess it wasn’t meant
To be today
RAINY FAMILY DAY W/BABY
Eleanor holding the coffee table book
All the birds diving upside down
THAT TYPING NOISE
A little space in the morning
disappears
like paper!
the machines sit in the wind
the starlings hover over
the gum that falls out of your mouth
clings to the world for dear life
