| Brandon Shimoda [I was told]
I was told
that you were kind to us
once flowering
skin in the grass
trunks stripped
vacuities in the pulp and prickle cell
offered us into the merciful forest
between wood and white garment
to cut from a single stand
a grave of wide refuge
where made honorary
cricket-of-lace
ascends the shooting candle in the pine
to sound the whorling bell
catafalque in fog
mountain emerald dead--
fallen in this terrarium |
