ОглавлениеCONTENTS
1. The question of the wolves turns & turns
[I saw my life a wolf loping along the road]
[I transformed into this thing, this beautiful]
[Outside the new world winters in grand dark]
[Very quick. Very intense, like a wolf at a live heart]
[Who will take the madness from the trees]
[Stunned by gold, we see coming]
[In the space of a half-open gold door]
[We: spectators, always, everywhere]
2. Desire discriminates & language discriminates
[Desire discriminates & language]
[It was a desire rather than a boat]
[In moon-swallowed shadows]
[Under somber firs two wolves mingled]
[There are wolves in the next room]
[I have lost my being in so many beings]
[How long have I left you?—played the wolf]
[Beyond the baying of a snow wolf]
[Here in this town, in a glass honeycomb]
[Nothing remains of you. The city]
3. Each letter a closed house
[From this bleak hotel, & at the bored]
[The day’s long madness has drained]
[In the wood-world’s torn despair, where winter]
[A stranger’s coming past]
[All song of the woods is crushed]
[After the first snow has fallen to its squalls]
[No cause you should weep, Wolf]
[Everything in these parts is geared]
[Having erased all the past like a false eye]
[Cripple of light opening against my back]
[A year ago we all flushed a little brighter]
[The wolf licks her cheeks with]
[They promised me a silence]
[First frost blackens with a cloven hoof]
4. Every transformation is possible
[I have looked too long into human eyes]
[I dream you into being—mongering wolf]
[With flowers in their lapels, nine]
[November stands at the door]
[You hear things. I see them]
[I watch my life running away]
[There is a wolf in me, sound]
[Everyone in the room wore white masks]
[All night the wolves danced]
[Shrewd wolf of dark innocence]
[In the yellow chalk of my diminishing bones]
[I want to be strung up in a strong light & singled out]
[What do we leave, living]
