White-Binder Poems
By David Eide
|
|
Oh, what is the beast?
They say they hate the beast but I doubt it.
The beast goes on through solid rock
and down rivers of rusting hearts.
It is the dragonfly on a rose bush.
A row of open windows along the most obscure
town hidden under the old werke factory
It is not ancient, not medieval.
It is an unrestrained thing;
a fantasy out of the mind of a drug addicted
heiress;
children unloosening their power for the first time.
