Last night I saw four foxes
flashing in the highbeams of a gun truck,
dashing across those cratered
highways of northern Iraq
into the dark desert.
I dreamed of chasing fox tails.
I dreamed thin fingers and piano keys
and an empty violin case.
I dreamed dust-quiet songs
falling on the tongues of forgotten shoes.
