Reading a Map Is a Form of Dreaming

Reading a Map Is a Form of Dreaming

Where can I find a quieter mind
When I hunt it is always in the real darkness

Someone told me to invent a place and then listen to it

What I heard were leaves

In the dark like this a house looks like a mountain
The dog is its own shadow

  1. This is a haunting poem, Hannah. It feels like a cento in that it is wonderfully "pieced" together with evocative lines that suggest more than their surface.
