Smudges on White Paper


1.


red fox was always slow / teeth protesting extraction
in so few words /and the confusion of light
continued to become

vowel / consonant /consonant / vowel / pretty pattern

something to sing or hear /in footsteps / in tree branches / a leaf
against cloud sky / wind rhumba
a failing of smiles / and a casual hand / hard table top

soft food / cold drink / white tablecloth / knife / fork / fallen spoon

and concrete earth / below sensual breath / red for beef
and sweet deserts / slow red fox / behind the pack and unable
to catch up / knots confusing meaning

before you came / leaving already in the air / like October in July
