Seasons of Dust
By Elizabeth Rieman
death the awakener
the alien mother
who spat you out—
and each subsequent,
sly mug—who cut
& pasted you
grief compels this urgency
to honor the gifts
for a time
obliterated
by the twilight’s gleaming
hot gulf sun
to honor the gifts
to flower
the seasons red
earth, the bed—
snow will come
comforting
then
squeeze your eyes shut
to catch the squirming
orb, neon blue
