BREEZE

So many dead afternoons
Spent talking about weather.

The breeze suggests a thin
Blue smoke curling
Pine's perfume twists from

Your chimney, the
Damage is done
Even slight-
(How would I know?)

You could be showing
Sail , masts of new
Leaves liter the air.
Limbs snapping,

Widespread destruction,
Standing in debris
Let loose and fly.
