Religious Valentine

You know I’ve always
kept several small altars
to the gods and spirits
around the house
who from the start
in that first backyard
I could feel in the air
and see in the thoughts
around me an owl’s
feather a few precious
stones a shell and
a small brass
statue of a bull
who count on me
as I have always
counted on them
