Ramble Creeping Leafless (early 1990's)

Ramble creeping leafless
Proof the burned bracket
The thieves lurk treelike, glinting
Like a just extinguished wick
Scraping dark arrives

A peep of pinhole star
Bony-fingered tree punctures
The fools gather singlehandedly, poking
Jokes between lover's names
Bark is gaping perfidiously

The wisest of wise wish not to come here
This is the barren
This is not for you
This is all that you would like to know
