SARAH DICKENSON SNYDER
The weight of one word
topples me into mythic
listening—the sound of wind
or is it leaves,
examining one red leaf
when I was six,
following the ribbed veins.
Everywhere uncoverings,
waiting for the taking.
A china cup used for change
on close inspection belonging
to another dynasty.
