March
A stupa of pear blossoms covers a sheep’s naked body.
Lighter leaves between leaves:
A newly-hatched spider lengthens its silk in the wind.
Soon its first web, its translucent insects.
I’ve been looking for three ways
to say a sentence. To make the white ribbon stand
when the eye is a drop of resin —
pilgrims with the hearts of planets are perpetually falling.
