Spirit Passing Through This World


Spirit Passing Through This World

I have come this way
again as if I would stay
this time - not like last
when I was the wind
passing and pushing brown leaves
hard against siding,
deep into sidewalk
cracks and swirling beneath trees,
covering caches
that squirrels forgot.

By next winter I will spread
as if made of ice.

Indeed my heart is
sculpted from the Greenland bergs
that crave hulls of ships.

The chicken crossed the road. That's poultry in motion.
