no
pets
(Kingdom
of Atarax)
he
makes himself a zoo
he
wears a shirt all week
every
other animal parties
passes
through
it's
only he obeys the borders
rounds
on them
ants
have the posts
with
a side of time
he
knows where the line was dotted
each
moment more fabulous
and
creatures come to see
he
calls the give and take a 'garden'
makes
tinkle of piano
drips
the the rain till slow
self-arresting
all these ways
gathers
winter to a fire
he
puts himself up a tree
he
digs himself a hole
feels
like a kept creature here
sometimes
demons will have the run of him
ever
skyward gazing
he's
the third person you know
such
days as set aside
he
keeps a team of calendar
all
beasts smaller than you see
he
expects their admiration
nor
should they admonish
the
animals won't notice the zoo
take
him for event
they
are all travels through
turning
of a world integral
he
only knows the pictures shown
he
only sees the zoo
skies
across this brief
a
new enclosure is going up
what
will he be there?
a
coffin for the gone
down
in the under zoo
these
acres
this
the chosen block
zoo
just for one
and
the others won't see
he
puts himself up a tree
he
digs a hole sometimes
the
animals have stolen it all
a
certain stretch of limbs
here
in the allotted time
the
country
as
if a gift
