Sunday morning, my Rebecca sleeping in with me again
There’s a kid outside the church kicking a can
When the cedar branches twist she turns her collar to the wind
The weather can close the world within its hand.

When the grass grows over me
Let me know you still love me
Never put nobody else above me

.

A boy with a coin he found in the weeds
With bullets and pages of trade magazines

.

A girl with a bird she found in the snow
Then flew up her gown and that’s how she knows

Bathtub running Joint hands
And naked as a bird
That’s a vision I’ll remember

White sheet blowing on a short clothesline

New tree bending to the breeze

This clock’s beautiful but can’t keep time

What’s that scar on both your knees?

.

You returned the book unfinished about a girl with raven hair
And a gentleman, her lover, who presented her a mare
