What You Awoke

What you

Awoke

Your hands
offered up

Tall
pines

proud

Staggering

leaned
over gold

Straight branches

Under and

Along

Dreams of
rivers

twin,

navigated

knotted lines

surrendered

necklaces,

chainlink,

high school
darkrooms

and

rockets
sent

to
what was
hoped

for,

shut eyes,

miles,

piles of
sharpened

stones,

record store bin

dividers.

Left
By the road.
