The Fox & Sloping Scene, poems published by Caroline Morrell

      The Fox

      The wind without a wind
      slips past us
      or through us if we are the whisper
      of father asking me to dig his garden in the edge of some war

      both having just been seen
      both being where we shouldn’t.

      Sloping Scene

      The bus moving patiently
      against our quarrels, curb upon
      curb–
      out one window, a man
      gripping a damp city bench,
      out the other, a choir
      delicate
      in gusts of glass.
