ROUND FERNWOOD WAY

Oxygen and bronze—
A father’s lilac hideout
(Cloud hammer hideaway)
(Spade on the table)

Not far away enough
For oblivion, too close
For obscurity— basement
Full of paper— upstairs

Full of babies— two elemental
Beauties by blood and egress
By cardinal and garden—
Harbored and freed

With the finches
That nibble
Your backyard
Bare.
