JEFFREY C. ALFIER
THE TANQUE VERDE WASH AT NIGHT
      Here, Time dreams a dark retreat of silence.
        Halting like men who stumble into ghosts
     or poppies that bloom at the Door of Sleep
        they remember another earth.  These wolves

     wade rivulets for bones their ancestors found.
