Things That Orbit a Very Old Dog
1. The sun, which has agreed to stay.
2. The smell of fat on coals.
3. A crown made Tuesday, worn sideways by Saturday.
4. One laugh arriving before its cause.
5. A younger dog who has not yet learned the difference between the party and himself.
6. Tongs. The authority of tongs.
7. Bottles that clink in the key of not-yet-evening.
8. Grass still holding heat like a secret.
9. Arms mid-gesture, caught between the meaning and the end of meaning.
10. The silver of a muzzle, which is just time made visible.
11. Everything else.
