Resigned Authority



In the foreign head a fluorescence
making open a space for beautiful sentences--

as an authority as an authority please
surrender your embittered


male places. a swallow on the sill.
to flash & tumble this automaton this laundromat.


*


Post-identity, the begonias no longer know
whom to droop for: if this is fatherhood, more lightness please.


*

Build me a frame & around that frame build me a box
& around that box a cloudless sky & then a better frame.

Fall asleep an opening toward a better grave.
