Proximity
place your hags in the other room
there was never any room for we
having been mistaken by the sea
endeavors through misty
harbors lit
or otherwise the sky
clear and air chilly of a season pre-
vious
you remind me of the colors of past times
like old films, like maybe the 30s? but in 2012
also the cover of that book, midnight in the garden of good and evil
which is also a faded memory (from childhood)
but only the cover and not the book, I never read it
and your colors are bright though faded
and I miss the chains that you drag from
I didn’t know if I would, then,
and your fidgety side of the mouth twitches
and conversations where our dark dispositions found company
in the pond where the frog and the old mole lives.
