On Grass
Elizabeth RobinsonAs all flesh is:
a blue, closely grazed
lawn of inconstancy—as metaphor is and is not
the field littered with
short vowel sounds and voiced
sibilants. Or is
this soft tissue
a query into the permanence
not of grass, but it is
of green verbs its own inquisition,
a couplet whose pivot
is.
