OUR EYES OPEN
Our eyes open full of doubt
on a gray Boston morning
from our river bed window
to watch a bird on Beacon Hill
where mildew sputters
on once meadow snows
in buried drifts
on shadows of divided light
from wavering city lanterns
a poet on a park bench
near the Frog Pond
trembles in silence
beneath a faint sun.
