Ice Bridge to America

Middle morning
and swallows are flying
everywhere over water
miraculous in its stillness.
You behind me do not move.

There's a canvas resting behind us, sleeping
at home in the dark
of my closed room, the pause
between the flick and stroke of fingers
and the scrape of charred wood.
You behind me do not move.
