    sitting the red dirt
    casting needle bone raw
    hey fox, ho owl
    what tales do winds tell?

    given to ghost on promise
    tied leather, wrapped lace

    if the memory serves you
    well

    sitting the red dirt
    between pine and swell
    hey owl, ho fox with
    promises winds tell

    Investigations of another kind…

    Which is worse?

    • Having dreams that can never come true, or

    these witching hour dreams
    what are they supposed to
    mean?

    that chapter has long been
    burned at the stake i cannot
    will it into being

    leave now, o ghost
    so perhaps we can dream
    another life

    where our books no long burn
