Eric Baus
A Red Dress
One blue word removed from the sky is what is noisy in the sky’s return.
One may decide to leave out the sun.
The song produced inside a wolf is the sound of leaving its wool behind.
A bank becomes blank. The sun smears.
There is milk and there is the path milk takes. Reeds revolve.
Flowers end in the mouth of the cow.
Sleep next to a wolf. Sleep next to the ground it effaces. A bear may lift a woman when its fur no longer culls. Some blood shifts
mid-breath. Some blood becomes a red dress. |
