Evening: Before the War

for Marion

“The sky slush gray,
the stream creaks
out of its winter
cocoon, unkinks.

The sun hovers, taking
a good last look at his
beloved before his long
trip. The trees cast

their jittery spells against
the onslaught of dark.

But that, like all this,
is mere mirage

to bend us, twist us, lift us
out of this.”

– Duane Tucker
