Supplement

When I come, called, to the smallish

skylight, where a hornet huddles


in a cedar corner, trapped

by a metal sieve, wind entering


and leaving him, it is

a rough courtship.

A Tooth, A Child

Which one did you lose? Point to the black


cavern, sucked empty by the cell in need

of bones. And what else


did she thieve of skin stretched like loose


linen, and blood

turned water?
