By my bedroom window, overlooking
the fields you plowed prematurely
pregnant with tomatoes
plumped and flushed in red
bathing in the sunrise of January,
run it by me.
By my bedroom window, while I sit
rocking back and forth, then back again
on a backdrop of autumn –
a curtain of sunset orange
over a famine of the soul,
run it by me.
