What It Is About to Do Le Mouton Noir Dessa Bayrock
Midwinter
Trees appear as brides,
Their snow dance wounding
The cosmos.
I am numb to you.
No one sees the snowdrops budding,
A bright field of knives.
If I turn away, they grow
In lines of white flame and
As darkness falls,
A kingdom of black blossoms
Deep as a moaning mouth.
