Whitesun

Whitesun / Benjamin Rozonoyer

Whitesun drapes her bedsheets
Down the rift of the deep canyon.
In narrowspace beneath,
A snake, the river slivers forth and sithers.

Cannons stutter
Through shafts of stinging sunlight.

Across, the land gives birth to firelight and smokelight
That topple, as the whitesun,
Into the rift of the deep canyon.
