can they hear us

in the valley below?

can they hear us?

IV.

shadows, rooms, accrete time.

millennia of things:

spoons of marmalade,

fly in cold wax,

port-ringed mug

even our bodies,

a furnace

under old quilts

& my gold earring

still there, somewhere,

in tender, claggy mud

clutching light

while farmer & wife

flare once, twice,

under a wheel of stars

V.

two teatimes we stood

warding off the hour

yet such days

will come again –

clean, fresh,

offering.
