>>2168905>delicate blue-black, sweeter from meadowsSmall and tart in valleys, with light blue dust
Huckleberries scatter through pinewoods
Crowd along gullies, climb dusty cliffs,
Spread through the air by birds;
Find them in droppings of bear.
Stopped in the night
Ate hot pancakes in a bright room
Drank coffee, read the paper
In a strange town, drove on,
singing, as the drunkard swerved the car
Wake from your dreams, bright ladies!
Tighten your legs, squeeze demons from
the queynt with rigid thighs
Young red-eyed men will come
With limp erections, snuffling cries
To dry your stiffening bodies in the sun!
