O Susanna | ||
Today in eastern Kansas Today in sunlight Throw small shadows Today speaks Mumbling hyperbole On dead branches Today even the sun By dreams of time Were more than a matter of accident Small
birds immortally peck Some nourishment
and Today there are
foxes Slow-moving
lunch Down by the
train tracks Colder than
time, squinting Don't happen to care right now. |
