166.3 Runaways
Runaways

his words ran off the page
now they wander
lost between the geese and ducks
the warbling cranes
among the cornrows wheat and sage
soft wool entraps them
while sheepishly they gather
herded by the plane-crash earthquake gas-explosion
it's been a bad week west of bozeman
in butte
the cemetery burns
in missoula they complain of sex
too much
or not enough
the old folk of montana know
it doesn't matter
how words flow
how pages turn
how black ink splatters
