“The way the truth of it hits you
is less white-lighting whisky
more the slow arrival of fall
in a place that knows little
of hard, dug-in winters. Here

of the Lord, folks running from
those people everyone tries
to make us be. Daylight bends
through the trees and steady
songs of birds we cannot see.”

by hammering chalk lines

against a heavy ageless Indiana night.”

“Concession to concession, this night
is ours. With lots of blueprint houses
burning their brick-base settler dream
into the land Tecumseh died for.”
