he borders
on tending
where someone
moves to mothers
down voluptuous walked sunways
the flowers like babies
shine by the street
in polished
grass
he thinks chrome
damp shine of green patch
on time for people summers
when children laughed heat
and
played on porches
in hollered doors
of a new
friendly closeness
each bike’s greetings with
revolving knees graceful
in ease
he’d Kool-Aid tomorrow
knelt from a world
surely
in a box
of comfort
