An excerpt
Night-Loons
The night, like this dock,
Is mine:
The dark waves of Dragon Lake
Look oily-
Hardly a ripple-
As loons cry
(Their voices disturb me),
And I wonder:
Would I be happy
If I could remember everything
I've forgotten?
Another loon cries:
The sound is hollow and cold,
Like echoes in a barge.
I wonder:
Have I ever actually
Seen a loon?
I can't remember.
