Belated Love Song for DinosaursIn all your lumbering, big-boned strides like awkward teenagers, ![]() and you also, smaller ones, you tiny chicken-lizards with heads bobbing. ![]() Sandpaper skin, beaks toward the sky. A volcano breaks out in prophecy. ![]() Such short arms, useless little hands, I want to clasp them, to hold you like a lover, ![]() make you understand remorse. Terrible things happen in those jaws. ![]() Lying down in this stony old nest I imagine your startled eyes. ![]() An unbroken egg twitches, thin reminder. Foresight is as scarce as hen's teeth. |
