Wind In Your Veins
happy california fox oh ghost you go
forest frost footprint and squealing
vole and you a comet burning
holes in the whole of ole californee
through cold water
in a crick you splash mad as a fish
running through the
fleets of fat grackles
in the mist (morning sun is
coming sure as the spicy
smell of honey puts a
grumbly in the sleepy dreaming
bear’s bumbly) happy little fox oh ghost you go
ocean sand
footprint where you’re
finally slowed, then
lulled into bed,
little black eyes shaking, rolling like
the waves, dreaming
of fingers caressing
your hair
like wind in your veins
