6.

You are the deepening that grows behind the willow tree

The thing that the sun doesn’t lick

 

You are the stillness where the wind splits its waves

Where I can hear

 

These trees have grown, all of them

But you wouldn’t know if you were

a birch, a chestnut, an oak leaf, a chipmunk

a car passing on this road in the night.
