x in the time of y
from here a bistro table invites thrills
and irrigation leverages
buying sons lie another use
irrigation zones then
on 75th street like crows
if they are said to function
resemble privacy deeply
and common cover cold
the first big outdoor
excision of self
frosting the outdoors
rehabilitating neglected aluminum
walls grease-covered
picked over rules
arboretum balcony courtyard
trellises grown over with lush wild perineum
