Oh Heavy Night
Kerplop,
Black walnut releases
The gold nugget of moon.
Somewhere
The glorious horror
Of childhood.
Somewhere
An ambulance siren
Summons the coyotes.
Somewhere
A homeless vet finds memories
He cannot carry.
Somewhere
An old man drunk in the waltz of time
Stumbles past the burn barrel.
Somewhere
Under the cemetery pines,
Gravity gives way to sleep.
