In morning’s
sward gray sky, a large goose
scans seaward;
then suddenly majestically
lifts into the sodden air: a molecular
being winged
and
blood-bidden,
beholden
to
the
wild mushrooms dawning
after a storm.
As a hung-up halgard
an empty jacket
hangs on a limb, decapitated and face
down burials, of "the
dangerous dead."
Bible
and Koran opened
Dahiyeh
then.
Sky
Water Bird, leaped into
visions, swimming upward.
