WHERE WE SLEEP

Harvesters came

for the hay

 

Between the icon’s window

and the sunset's 


non-Euclidian

horizon

 

Birds returned

from the fields 


silenced at Vespers,

camouflaged


and sheltered

by ground, shrub, and trees.

 

*

Enemies camped

in the woods

 

Taking the archetypes of dreams

out on patrol

 

Any thought

of sulfur, salt, and mercury

 

Gave territory away

for pyrite’s foolish likeness.

 

*

Know doubt

no problem

 

Hear and see

imagination

 

How we got here

how we left


Two stories shifting

angled perspectives

 

In either meaning

intending neither
