BRENDAN SHERRY
HEART OF ALENE
There is no drawing
tonight and tomorrow
about the scene of the gap
no road after
clearing the border
only houses
oysters
and overcast
there was a minute
you did not want
the world to be at rest
but considered all of it
as the continuation
of a heartbeat
the success of white
and gray stone
over the pall of water
the sequences over which
heaven must lock
in order to equip
itself with a place
between gunpoint
and call
