Hollow night
four weeks for
this drought we wrought
moon is a

frayed open hole
stayed up all night
we are waiting here
for him to come

oh light on the hill
i thought you were a star
or at least a flame
from a needy heart
as if only i could ever find firewood.

how do we keep warm?
what has burned for this?
this singing born
from a cage of ribs
as if only birds could know the thrill of flight.

wrap me in wings
throw me out into the light
where i'll get stuck in a branch
and woven into the night
where the lace of the trees is a thread at the seam of sight.
