lemon-zest sunrise / in the cocktail of / the day with its icy glaze // of winter served up gently / stirred to wake you up / to the dreaming world

My father’s guns, left to me—

Several from the bedroom closet

And one from under the bed:

Shotgun with a flashlight taped

To the barrel to daze the eyes

Of a midnight intruder.

The light my father wielded

He left to me in my midnight.

I unloaded the rifle

And held it in the sunrise.

The dark barrel’s golden gleaming

Shed sparks of filial love.

a conclave of trees / in the early fog / of what would be the sunrise // the trees hold their faith and turn / their backs to the street / and i stand with them
