Everything Of You

by

Alan C. Keimig

You come easy and I breath you in
All of you at once even the hot cones
Of your bread and butter like it was
The last morsel I would get before
The grave opens where I can leap down
Into its beginning driven by the rain and
Roots pulled out. You are everything and
Everywhere at once, a whirlwind, a song,
A bird, a tree, a river, woman, child, never
Though enough to last fistfuls and mouthfuls
And seeing in the margins peach and pearl
Silk pastel material everything and nothing
Still enough wild plums and gathered from
The earth unopened flowers promised
>From the buried vine bleeding hearts
Carefully set in sleeping ground willing
To exploit in a wild complete profusion
Slashed by rain the cup runneth full
Everything in time will flower fruit
And scent the atmosphere with your evidence.
