love
by Bratsche

of one's life would do
- heaven's underbelly, instinct's
proper of rose or paper rose,
talon's curl in keeps of silk

would do,
blend inside weathers
not as change resignations
but that clouds' snow or rain-
bows fete loin and dream of equal furrow

would do
causing dance by strums within,
musics from strums without
duo concertante of kitchen and bed
leaving all the rosins
to the handies of hour and place

would do
if of one's life,
harvests without season
in what word and deed avow
would do, would do

if not -

one's such moment
be sustained in what rigor-sweets it has
