Laura 02:56
When I got home Laura was sleeping in the yard. I did not disturb her. The first drops of rain there was a storm coming in (she stayed sleeping). When I got home Laura was sleeping in the yard near magnolias. A blue-green bird was trapped inside. It circled and flew towards the sky-blue window, its feathers were on the floor.
2.
I swallowed all the letters she wrote to me rolled them in pieces and drank them with whiskey in the warm morning light she speaks of the polish of a branch I try to clear it - the desk in my throat she holds my life in a branch my pain in a ditch I see the light (the windows accepted bricks) the birds here sound like chairs all I have and all I feel is all I have and all I feel - oh!

Hawk 03:29
A hawk slid to the left yesterday I had forgotten my keys A hawk spat into the trees... There's a horse in the bedroom I was sleeping near the fireplace the room was orange in the 1920s I wonder what the people did to sharpen the time? I think of a note to describe the hawk I walk around the yard Did it arrive like a piece of paper or a falling piece of paper?

Filly 02:19
N: In two, short years our words have slipped. Now, in five minutes, I'll take the mare down to re-shoe her. M: Don't be long. Watch out for carpet snakes. How old are these pears? N: They're the same colour as the foal. N (later to E): I've got a filly in my chest. When you get the papers I get a filly in my chest.

Beaudesert 01:57
The spider web in your eye was taken away. It stopped raining. I wiped the embarrassment off your face, put it in a jar near the horse and cooked it with a little oil.
