Stragglers

"Skyscape 5,"  Heike Negenborn

 Stragglers

What has been taken away will return
and it is already In pieces
Leaves crawling up your sleeping supine
night body The farthest hems of oceans
folding back like bedsheets

But with your breath

    and here is what will cause dissatisfaction
    and for this I am sorry

you push away
any faintly loose-edged thing
