fireplace

collaborative piece from vince bauters and josh zoerner

"fireplace"

i was sleeping in trying
to hide. it was
the only time

i was mismanaging

clinging to the sheet and
October light. Michigan rain held in the
screen and no appetite for
apples.

i could sit outside in the fog, watch
swans, but you would tell me to
come inside.

give a steady, white hand to the
child playing man near the river. and bring
us all into the same room

where dim lights reveal a
silent understanding of creating
one's swan song.
