reverse window (ukiah•tanka)

dreamt i shot out ur window
/ twinkled in the wind /
ur reflection in a heap

the sound of absence /
sky’s a buttermilk sorrow /
monotonal air
girded hemlocks central squared
in horizontal absence

What I’m Reading:

“Which is vaster in the night, the desert or the dark?
Which is heavier on the sand, your feet or your fear?”

— Mosab Abu Toha / “Desert And Exile” / The Things You May Find Hidden in My Ear
