P O E T-rye Formulae
Vinegar
On truth, a branch,
birds roost at points, as would be written,
to sky-depart, start arc to their flight’s sequence-formation.
Tawny the nettles, by fall’s Aurora.
Imitation prophets – shepherds who count them
time fermentation to the murmuration of their migration.
Lavender Vodka
Round the crest to the curve of the filter,
lavender as new sheep gathers.
Lamb-flock forms a mauve kind of purple.
Waits slow-sand, stem of glass bottle.
Window cacti keep time from their sandbox:
they count sun risings.
