from Together and by Ourselves
Then he stepped away from the poem midsentence . . .
we must have been lonely people to say those things then.
But there are rooms for us now and sculptures to look at.
In the perfect field someone has left everything . . .
Make sure you date and sign here then save all the soft things.
Because everyone wants to know when it was,
how it happened – say something about it.
How the night hail made imprints all over.
Our things. Our charming and singular things.
