In the Garden Digging

What are you dying to see?
Bending low in the yard
Earth in the dark

When will you fill the page?
Something new for Jane
Transmission to name

A good meal grows
And your body knows
How to be still alone
I'm keeping well
Sleeping through telephone
Scams and smoke
And the blue light glow

(I don't need you to be
Anything but a garden to me)

I get it wrong when I can
She's gone of course
That doesn't change

You say it's coming up soon
Dirt in the afternoon
Dust in the rain

A good meal waits
And if you remain
I hope it's like writing the garden
I'm keeping slow
I sleep at home
Picking up late and starting
To part with

Pour yourself a drink
Tell me about the new lines
Pour something good
Tell me about Jane in a lake
And I'll try to get it right
I'll try to get it right
I'll try to get it
