----For Jennifer Garcia
sad Russian music sounds from
the throat of the accordion
metal buckled
gave way with a sad sound
a dog brings hyphened food
sad-toned scent of goodbye
which death's door
happily changed
listen for sad trumpet sound
alcohols to snap you
the mountain again never opened
door sounds unbearable
sad town no children
a dry sound kept on
with no food
Lana didn't sound sad
down countless flights of villages
or dejected tabby cat
under hedges
hung herself with shoelaces
from a special sound
her belly was empty
octopus composed organic remains
makes gnarly didgeridoo sound
a sad land of veggie women
the fourth-graders alone
700 American women
their shift at the coal mine
and the sound of rumbling
another vestige
frames jump out
or our family broken up
on the phone
Otter spoke to her
with armored-vehicles
any light of continuous action
she refused utter sound
my neighbors were families
riots of sound
as I climbed higher
babies televisions frying food
sounds console against you
a throng of bearded men
in sad colored
sound or stirring in the air
threat in the sound
lock some trees/wood
folks bolted to bolt & sleep
hymns to whisper sad
Deb to the caboose
maybe mistaking woodpecker & bluejay
does sound autumnal with sad
will cash magic monikers
because Dorcas has died
White City with grass roofs
tall & sad smirks
echoed & sweet
