Except in third grade we grew lima beans in the window
in plastic baggies with only wet paper

Birth of mosaic
When you pulled me from the hearth, limb
by limb, I was still crackling with the fire
that melded my bones

Corpses are Clattering
I see milky spoons
Littered on the bypass.

The Potato Eaters
Vincent dipped figurative fingers in
Earthen bowls,
Sodden—
Years of sweat.

Fire of Flesh
Tumblers,
Nine glittering glasses,
Jam out at once,
I lip out:
The Song of Body Electric
Whitman sung—
My mood afire.
