Harry Gilonis

 
For August Kleinzahler
 
 
shed notes
leave

                the
double bass

a gentle
heart

        strongly
held

—for who's
absolved

    from
the play

of the
mind?

—wind
and light

move the
leaves

                day
and night

leave no
moves

    scored
and cut

my foolish
heart
