For Bon Iver.


A child like him

folds like a blanket

when he’s cold in the dome.

Jet black ink tides

on the stitched flower organ.

A child like him holds the

eyes older than the broken

lilac mold.

Crouching like a crow

on the rocks

shivering

paralyzed

What could have

brought me to this low

outlined in blue yarn

shaded with shadows.

A child like him holds the

eyes higher than the flag.

A child like him

will break the sound pole.
