Spreads the ice sheet on the shaven lawn;
Signing an annual permit for the frost....”

I drew the white sheet over the islands
And the coins on my eyelids sang like shells.”

there in the hall, flat on a sheet of blood that
ran down the stairs. I did appreciate it. There are few

only casually invited, and that several months ago.”
