Sweet
"
when language was insane, we
stood in the law’s one vacant lot
and being deaf and dumb were saved
one school bus after another
skirts past an abyss of light
night’s an old movie
and music soaks into the age like rain
as orphans chase blue sky
books stand in the mourning
on the road leading to explanation
azalea and her sisters
bloom for death
