who imitated the mouse who lived in the clock

When I think of my own hearing loss, I think of irreparability, a loss that runs only one way, converting my skull to a locked vault, a cave. I like to be alone there, to study how it susurrates. Sonority, that tideline's arrival, retreat. Other losses are more acute, and I bear them bitterly. Like the constellations in the dark night of Greek thinking, the night sky overwritten with predators and prey. Washed with milk, they sink away to hide behind the sun.

Direction is silence beyond the gated forest
edging the field. We gate tonight. Then stop.
Or silence the meadow.
Then stop talking. Or unrest our legs and set ourselves
a path along the creekbed.
Then digest the matter of silence and the voles.

Valley, which is expanding, now, with light.
