I watch the bad gas drain

out of the generator. I’m on my knees

in the crabgrass blooming

everywhere now beneath—

we’re all beneath—

a smoke-obscured sky.


I should have gotten up last night

to write down the lines that woke me up.


I can still make out their rough shape.


What is it that I have yet to tell myself?
