Voice’s Valentine

The cat chases the finches
From the chaste tree swiftly
I say this faster and faster

A gray-haired dark-skinned lady
Is rescuing plastic and aluminum cans
From the recycle bins
 
I wish I had time to read Ursula le Guin
And Tolstoy again two
Perfectly fine thinkers
 
But these three lines
Are like the wall around Mexico
That will never be built
 
They wander off and get
Distracted
From your voice
