the invisible

Orange sun, warm spill of sensation,
over my head, my face,
my shoulders, back, belly,
legs and feet,
my toes,
inside of me.

I heard a wing of feathers
slipping through the air
of quiet. The other wing
came too.

I wanted the sound to land on me,
or so close the song of its
body would open my eyes.

Trust is being blind
and understanding you
still see.
