Natural Valentine

A weak song
a sleep song
rain-poorwill
 
the dampness proves
how easily influenced
I am by singing
 
if I come to think
of my body as a flame
in a cupped hand
 
is it not because
of lightning and thunder
we have our national parks system
 
every wo/man is a museum
wherein the instinct for preservation
is restored among the artifacts
