1

lumps of ice melt in the bed of shrubs
it is after the market
warm breeze
warm sun
in the shade you give balm
to the black poplar [a]

2

red and white striped
bent to a crook
who sipped at one end
who was sipped at the other [b]

3

solo.
the dirty utensil has lost its head
its purpose lays deathly white
and useless [c]

4

brown hair caught in pine needles
(The brush and the brushed)
the tree and the human live on [d]
