while an ant
toiled from the dahlia
to the ash tray
I was forming
a beautiful lie
*
having shot
a winter dove that
might be my god,
I go home
with smoking gun
*
when I smoke
a bitter bitter morning cigarette
the wings
of a seagull
skim my heart
*
being of mixed blood
I feel lonely
even if I win-
I walk along chewing
a hot grass stalk
