1353
towards the
equinox 
parrots in the mandarin
gay lorikeets and honey
tongues 
birds of the bower bluer
than sin  
some dawdlers, some
warblers 
some lightning swift 
as if a special place
were sung
thud landers 
indelicate of beak 
who sway a limb till
still
swoop, dive
to be among the thrill 
gust buffeted 
heavier than air 
strangers to what we
call toil 
breezy birds 
who cannot care
and drop the skins and
pips 
who leave their
leavings everywhere 
it’s not their nests
they soil
