limbeaux [doug duffey]
below me
the mississippi snakes
through the dark landscape
toward a peach coloured
southern sky
at one curve it almost touches itself
like an astrological sign
like omega
eternity
thousands of feet above the earth,
i suddenly remember
that thousands of miles away,
at the very tail of the snake
lies my home
