End of May
Glistening repose
Cool serpentine blanket of rose
Gamble of raccoons in marble and chinoiserie
Pale pink and lavender daffodil cupola

June begins
a crush of brush
A long antsy chain
Head and lungs cave in
Sheets get twice their polish in

Mid June
Time is times four
The list grows hard
Though I am careful to water
it’s cottony
All day
The cold is my favorite cousin, sleeping over, taking turns playing Nintendo

What will this final week be
A laundry of lists
A mini version of the moon
Reeking smoke on the lips
A capsule of foam
A bestseller tome
A coracle dome
A miracle of 
black moth
Or winged horse
with vinegar to sip
