Uniform

the love by the lake
he sends a gift
admiring of women
admiring of bodies
strength of simplicity
alive in the bird nest
alive in the grass
did he know his ambition
was it real
i don’t think so
bring us to the house
feed us
remind me of that beautiful place
in Denmark
the water, the trees
they could never have lived
but they’d love to have known

part one, two, three
