midafternoon moon
deer skeleton
rummaging the burned dark remains of an apple tree
fruit thrown 10 feet away
one single alone deer
can't hear my sneeze
i wish i could walk with you
the wide, tall shadow that leaves you
in the waning sun
and the midafternoon moon
paper leaves shivering, twittering
it really is all magic
train marriage
limp white chrysanthemum limbs
bent around the black oiled cables
screeching in rattling orbit until final ends
when the dog barks at the falling train
berry bear
or red fox
glowing in the always night-
always like a charm
always like a home
glowing berry skins
nail polish flakes
acid on the tongue of a
black bear
or red fox
creaks and creaks and won’t stop
the wind is wet and tangled in a fever
craggy maple hits smooth spruce walls
a wild night the dog
opens and opens and won't stop
