Bought A Stolen Motorcycle

Three hundred six

"Not a good shelter a bundle of shadows,"
Sylvia Plath

is not a good place
the maze of a museum for
miss

is true: there
pigeons blur the path towards us
swallowing my lures

But what good is that your name
big concert in the museum tune
The

dropped from room to room like a dark pearl
and rolls under Roman heads pedestals
slips through the crack of an Egyptian sarcophagus
translates into a plate of Ming Dynasty
reappears in a picture of mercury from one corner of Manhattan

Your names are shadows, chameleons
- a leaf among leaves, swords, sword between parts of the landscape

There is something wrong in your loss
in the land of this story is narrated
