lyrics

HEATHERWALKER

a second can begin
in the middle of another second

a life can live
inside of another life

we make nests
inside of homes we make
inside of houses

cities inside of cities

gods inside of other gods

a book can begin in medias res
a second can begin in medias
of another second

small yellow and black birds
claim a sky inside the grasses
a sky inside a greater sky

look at them
what I have created–
how many words
have I created?–
they nest inside of one another–

FEATHERMUCKER

( ( ( a cage of ribs pointing
toward the sky, this wingéd

thing : no longer feathered,
hardly flesh. what’s left
is part of the concrete,

part of the native city.
a lump of calcium.
a hard sharp beak half open

a caw, a cry of fear, a sigh.
what creature was this that fell broken
into the gutter, the ditch?

ribs pointing at the sky. let your eyes
follow their arc into
the dark air : you think it’s night

but it’s bodiless feathers
blocking the light of the sun ) ) )
