Smoke and Steel

CALLS

Because I have called to you
as the flame flamingo calls,
or the want of a spotted hawk
is called
because in the dusk
the warblers shoot the running
waters of short songs to the
homecoming warblers
because
the cry here is wing to wing
and song to song
I am waiting,
waiting with the flame flamingo,
the spotted hawk, the running water
warbler
waiting for you.
