Cuckoo
October 2019
When the buds
on the birch
disappear
I appear
so spooked,
het-up,
heaven-fretted,
bejesused,
souped up
with all the may-
bees in May,
the new
plight of the new
(Cuckoo,
Cuccu)
to haunt us
back,
to the sleeping
greenwood
(like that? how so?)
with a – wake for a voice,
my loopy echo,
a bit of
locus pocus
