knifing through the happy story.
A decade here. An artful year.
Highballs for the low-browed gladhands
who sip with pinkies up.
Deep in your darkroom, developing,
developing your ghost.

With whom do we share this mealtime, the seasons of rain and sunshine
uncomfortably whole and rich?
A lifetime here in a single year,
An orb in the mirror, a mirror in a dream of Victorian drapes.
Deep in your darkroom, developing,
developing your ghost.

the caraway seeds in the soft rye:
a window open for sounds of birds.
A ballad sent on the springtime air
high up in the oaks that shoot new life
from their wits' end.
Deep in your darkroom, developing,
developing your ghost.
