carved initials

Purple-granite flowers,

a spool of color,

a wooden fence,

in the

thinning-

day; long-bending,

cache of light.

And wintered there:

four wooden carved initials.

(back when they were at the “all-at-once-time,”

with, maybe, feet on the ground?)

dust spirits.

(not analogous)

Uncrowded

like a hole in the hole of the bottom.
