POEM OF THE DAY

THE PARK FIRS

 

I have seen you dressed in the deep ermine

snow of midwinter, elder brothers—

 

The tryst-keeping of your vanishing

and mine

mind different clocks,

but trace arcs of the same pendulum—

 

I have heard you creak

in the weight

of being a green thing

in a cold cosmos—

 

We cast our seed to the simultaneous period.

 

Dana Pattillo
