A Man Who Lived too Long
For each word he speaks
a leaf falls from his tongue
catching syllables
and speckles of powder
left from a morning
hidden by the moon
and dropped
shrieking
from his broken tree
until it collapses
like rockpo(e)ms against
a blank white page
filled by autumns milky
swaying evening light.
