Private Property on the banks of Lake Erie
I could have been watching
the sky shrivel dawn widening
a thick dark lake.
Skin below skin around
time thickening as private property
dropped off into some purer oblivious
ending through which the ground
could or couldn’t be seen.
I could have been helpless, lessening,
only barely a filter for low winds
or niche above upending.
But I was poring over lapse.
