Richard Siken, “Detail of the Woods”
I looked at all the trees and didn’t know what to do.
A box made out of leaves.
What else was in the woods? A heart, closing. Nevertheless.Everyone needs a place. It shouldn’t be inside of someone else.
Your body told me in a dream it’s never been afraid of anything.
That thing where you get rid of ‘everything in between’ and just keep the lines that meant the most to you.
