Scorpio Over Roseburg
The sky is an open book
inside the locked library of stars.
Scorpio bakes its potatoes
over Roseburg. There are pears galore,
upside down light bulbs in the trees
out back. The second one
singing with such energy
in the deer bedroom. Hen's nests
but larger, in the stiff grasses
where it's closer to Marney's place.
We see the ghost fires he set.
They were sudden, during the day.
I saw his back through the black edges
of the low flames as if
he was only playing.
