unnumbered 
as the forests vanish 
behind
the land 
a
mirror sky 
the
bone home of the gone 
little
house in the woods 
where
image and emotion live
each
always daring the other 
there
is no way of dwelling forever 
we
have to pity the homeless gods 
their
morsels of worship 
 
Wow Kit I love this. & I love the last stanza. I think it stands alone. And oh yes- that place where image and emotion live...

ReplyDeleteI second that emotion...although I feel the last 2 stanzas could be a little leaner.
