pretty boy

she'd recite in building echo

to Paul the parakeet

his feathers slicked like Elvis' helmet hair rustling

in her beating loop

Fall's plucked leaves

his caged mirror spins on strings

in the wind's singing

a pocket watch tick-tocking

from pecked emerald plastic

to the inverted bird

hollow
