Murmuration of starlings.

"The boundary whereon I break to mist" --The Ring and the Book

Storm on a dark world.

the material is wanting
for ev'rything i'd make
& old themes haunt
a heart worn out with breaking

nothing solves in art
i look out at my neighbors
each bungalow that harbors
full complements of hate

& wonder as the light
deepens into evening
whether this bated thriving
is itself defeat

Broken dreams.
