in an abandoned farmhouse outside of town
a bed, a table, a chair next to the window
outside - the summer sky scattered miles in all directions
but through the window it is so small
outside is dry heat and heavy breathing
no clouds, no visible sign of invisible bodies
outside there are thin, sharp bones in the tall grass at the highway’s edge
is it fair? is it far?
take me home to golden afternoons
I am so small in the fading light
come nightfall I won’t exist at all
