The Double-Bed Dream Gallows

Driving through

hot brushy country

in the late autumn,

I saw a hawk

crucified on a

barbed-wire fence.

I guess as a kind

of advertisement

to other hawks,

saying from the pages

of a leading women's

magazine,

"She's beautiful,

but burn all the maps

to your body.

I'm not here

of my own choosing."

1968
