THE DRAGONFLY MAILMEN

The ominous crayfish is speaking
Hanging above us like frozen pronghorn
Sprinkling our bodies with mountain-water

The reindeer sandworms are branching out
Spreading like silicon staghorn
Building a rope-bridge into our minds

The holy urchins gather their spines
Holding an underwater council
Sewing our hearts back together

The dragonfly-mailmen are coming
The unstoppable messengers persist
Bringing dangerous valentines

poetry, poem
