Saudade



remorse or fossil
neither ||
we imagine a wing

or a calendar
of each       a crown
the paired intricacies of fins

grief already
counting the rings
trees like

depth of field
in a Chinese painting
a stone

affords infinity ||
in the measure’s gap
a horde of hidden bones

weights these
a blank white sphere
replicating meadow

we abandon our fingerprints amid the letters
