Fever

Do birds carry feathers or do feathers
carry birds? Waves of moments

make hourly seas. Floating on winter
feathers make fans make breeze.

The bird hits the glass and the bird
shatters. It repeats. Three crows ride

on a warthog’s back. It is so hot,
drifting. This thin, fogged window

marks the place between dreams.
The badger, with its striped face

wheezes down a long gravel road.
