Yucca moth
infinite crow of time
night desert
if love takes every turn
to find a moth
then I with my heart
have just a while

Bodily questions
in the book of the body
is there no other writing true as romance
which is true and which false
of two children perfectly made
joined at their bellies
and only one pair of legs
what work will make us fear
the consequence of it
how is holding you
so large a music
Progeny
I spent all morning preserving
a collection of cries
work and desire
greed and fear and love
to show publicly if I should die
without children
Kissing gate
would a gate have equal share
in the translation between us
touching at first
and open as a road
giving both me and you
our own past
The book-lover’s blues
chance is a good companion
but needs are the greatest confidants
I love sometimes
and sometimes I do not care
a woman is lovely but I suffer
God forgive me for my books
Felled
love is fallen upon me
like cutting down a tree
to make better light
with my whole body
I appease my desire
to be nobody
but I see how fanatic tenants
would garden on so little ground
being almost starved
Charmed
a couple of green geese we are
alone with the evening light
thunder and lightning it seems
everywhere else
Wobbly
where we sat close
like the first time
ever on ship
I am come to not know
what to do with
my legs
Pilgrims’ progress
past all fear
we come to a labyrinth
nothing in it
but accidents like dust
falling down over all
the land in pieces
without any other design
but love
Sign language
my own hands talk about me
as full of life as a grave
kill with them
and they go still
love is the trade they never want
Silence lover
I drink her wine
but not her coffee
I am buying love
not an ear
evening comes with few words
to my bed
Distraction
I clog myself with desire
and miss the peak
alone in my barrow
I endeavor to see
give two loves for one
late-night stay
