Daphne's Radio


the reproduction
of a manuscript page
onto which
a drop of sunny delight
has been spilled,
35 crocuses
in a square yard of
sunny slope--

(33 yellow
2 purple, 29 open
5 shut
1355 january
31 2005). due to
a mistake in storage
the humming of glenn gould
on all my cd's.

for about six minutes a day
from november to march
south of the space heater,
north of the fish tank
and east of the fridge,
a golfball-sized sphere
of invisible fire
hangs flylessly
from november
to march.
