(source: "Boomtown", 2000.)

My window sits 
whole under the wing 
of a crow. My guard
in perched position, 
all his life. We’ve 
never had to scream.

It’s around this time
I consider thin 
walls savage, 
weather predictable —
a line of options
dispatched as pressures.

It's about time
one of us
takes flight.
