Mister Today, a Doctor from Ossetia
The Last One to Go
Toy Blocks
Delicious Whiteness of Corn

I love the rustle of silver
against the inside of bones.
An Indian shields his eyes
and scans the empire of rose-pink sand
with an endless gaze.
Something drowned in him
and extinguished the lights of music.
Now he sings sad ballads to the sky.
Mister Today has knocked out his little pipe,
he fights the waves
of the blazing spirit,
and this is the black gelding
we will keep on training.
