grandmother poem

as i lie roofed in, screened in
i flung my soul to the air like a falcon flying
candles toppling sideways in tomato cans
did you ever see an alligator
the darkness rolls upward
sing again the song you sung
to what shall a woman liken her beloved
the body may confine
stay no more
rose and amber was the sunset on the river
there are gains for all our losses
a blue-black nubian plucking oranges
