THE DEER HAVENS
Geoffrey Olsen
$5
the fur is dream and gelatinous
I can’t speak or present can’t speak
life within mouth of leaves
dream mouth
arrayed around the bleak opening
I do not have ownership over blade and all the
things of a blade on the edge of
climactic or feral
and the edge reproducing the dream in
a now of disaster songs
after songs and I’m also
the cat and the imbued indirect
that waits, waiting
unordered, unwindowed
