Broadcast
1
Five blank days of snow,
and then a sunset fills feeders
emptied of thistle seed
with the glow of vacuum tubes.
2
Without the golden weight
of finches, radiant columns sway
from the white silhouette
of a black walnut tree.
3
What frequencies might they
transmit? Beyond the wind-
blown static of memory,
what music? What news?
