Ship Smoke Days
Back in the wide red wonder
Of wood on water
Felt by remember-this-forever bones
And seen by moon-stung eyes
A sky piercing mast
Pulls in the fireflies
And sets off its timber
The brown scent of a night cigar
Shapes the air with a stream like blood
I’m there
Tide-black fever
And the evening chase
Of shiver-crimson surf
Fire, billowing fire
Above the currents and spray
A valley has been carved through the night
For an hour-long instant
And a year long intake
Of blue breeze breath
I’m there
