dream in unmade yellow and blue bed opposite window

something about the white house sliding into street


conscious, in so far as I know my body in the world

color at one moment, tone of one form, other voices

light coming into clouds above black plane of ridge

first bird chirping from branch in right foreground


word in response to word, becomes more of something

“disturb” the wrong word, moment not there, certain


it was not very long after this that there occurred

the second of the events that rid us of that person

whiteness of wave breaking across windblown channel
