For Appalachia
Ogre winds, catastrophic,
and the rain was never meant for this river,
neither the bedrock of mountains,
nor the autumn amber of the leaves,

Pulsatory the ictus, the string roots of fugue
forms, the canaries leapt to friar, the brass goose
in the witching hours screaming triads, frightened
contours at the dysmorphic stars, wounds of pearl
weights, sthene, it’s feather race of horror.
