In an Ozark Flight over Iowa
A dazzle
of a day,
even though it's two below.
A dazzle
of a day,
even though it's two below.
If I seem to patronize and always limit what I say
to the cliches of affection, mother,
and never give a good goddamn what you are doing:
A trifle pompously, my love, you move among
the mass of nerve-
tissue in my cranium:
These eyes an accusation.
Or quiet question
Containing its own answer.
