By Jenny Middleton
THE POEM IN YOUR HEAD
downy soft, you said, there’s a bird that flies
and flickers at dusk in my garden trees
and now I’ve told you, you’ll imagine its sighs
downy soft. You said, there’s a bird that flies
that you can’t see, but is haunting your nights
singing your own darkness, from your own seas
downy soft, you said, there’s a bird that flies
and flickers at dusk in my garden trees.
