ours is a hill town

down into a misspelled café -

3 O' clock, a few pecks there

                      & there

& here

the closing door

                                  disrobement

stuck (in)               sari (in)

it, a long yellow, a sallow soft

the dog fight of the hill comes to me in winds

                           but sorry, we're closed

                           the yelps, and time -

                                                we're closed.

an airlessness, an easy breath

of exhaling truth - the way is upwards

                                      it always has been.
