From the collection:

Tomorrow
Allan Peterson

Tomorrow will be partly cloudy
The other part will be buzzing
and small collisions
a bird on the crossroads sign
a song above a plus
Weedeaters will answer each other
throughout the valley  bees will dance
every sound will proclaim itself
better than silence
I will leave a few letters out of my voice
horses will turn blue before the hills
then I will make a pet of sleep

Evidence
Graham Allen

The only photograph I have of you
is from a passport run of four,
one you didn’t need to use
to effect your escape from me.

It lives within that memory box
and gets remembered every other year,
your face remaining beautiful
as the touch of your lips decays.

One day I will look at you
as an illustration in a book
I have no intention of purchasing
let alone desire to read.

One day you will be nothing more
than an image of temporary note
flashed before disinterested eyes
at an airport security check-in.
