Dry-mouthed soothsayers open up the wind
with all its false glory, exchanging belief
for documentation. Birds sky farm
sprung rhythm from branches and you,
remembrancer, you’re the only one
on the road to the wall, which props up
all this reflective light, that surge of uprushed
thought. You’re locking down a suitcase,
slowly straightening to go.
