But I Was Only Teasing


morning sounds

through steel.

eight. nine.

the dog knows

what time

it is by the clank

of food in her bowl.

even if it is gravel.

nourishment by song,

this is the certainty.

this is the principle.

I used to confuse

new trees

with buckets—

because

water is no bastion

against Thursday.
