He Lived in a Time of Weather

He Lived in a Time of Weather


Horse with green jaw
two berry eyes
drink yellow creek
kleh, kleh, he neigh.
His teeth a snarl of bailing wire.
He has a house in the village,
a rusted car for a trough.
The red wind his neighbor.
All day, tumbleweed drive speed
limit.
If he had arms he could rake sky,
find turquoise moon.
Flick his ears
are stars.
