HOW WILL I DESCRIBE

A small poem from Walk the Wildly.

How Will I Describe

The eyes are language in damaged flight

the underwing glaze of old-fashioned vases

kicked snow or the skin on boiled milk

heavily salted olives (green)

crest-fallen windows or naked birds

Blue as harmony Earth shaken clean
