Sunday in the Storm Era
Joanne Kyger

 

           "these are extraordinary times"
           so we can do whatever we want ha ha

           the sky darkens
                stitching the white pillow cover

                If I had my way I'd sit and watch
           the grey and poundy waves all day…

               The candle lights for Cypress
           must be down at the channel now
       where the tide rushes out
    from the lagoon and keeps on going out

  way out… remember?
                                                 now the evening sky
                               looks pretty clear
                                                                      that
                             was a history
                         just happened
