Pond Song 4.4

“The aesthetic rebirth is intertwined with erotic outreaching.” GB 40

midwinter thaw__sun fuzzy and small

tide high in the snow__expanding circles crawl

across graphite water__the bufflehead elsewhere

overfull emptiness__nothing in the mirror

save the moon-like sun__shaken by the disturbance

made by a mallard couple__green upon brown flash dance
