from Ordinary Work

5. Artemis Carries Her Bow

in the wrong hand: she is not ready

An ordinary morning
in autumn

pierced dark piece

pinholes: twin suns mark the retina

light
then negative—

_

We steal in at dark
and take
all we can find

clean out the house
leave it

speechless
hoarders of desire



Kathleen Jesme
