The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for July 2004

nowhere
to run
    (my
    trains)
but in heaven

i lead
an inter
i
or life

i follow
an exterior
life

no flight
2 fancy

i govern
a hidden
life
    no
practice
just end
less rehersal
    
    (i re
    arrange the
    tracks
    in the hard
    foam i
    don’t paint
    or pin
    or
    drill

the wires)
meandering

but 4
purpose
in the spring:
    
the black
tails nest
building
in the back
yard
        the bush
is busy
the red breasts
hunting
in the
grass
